ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses a method for aligning a reticle with a semiconductor wafer. The method includes the steps of (a) applying a light source and an optical system for directing an incident light beam to a plurality of reticle alignment marks on the reticle to project a reticle-mark beam to an alignment detector therefrom; (b) applying the light source and the optical system for directing the incident light beam to a plurality of wafer alignment marks on a second surface of the wafer for projecting a wafer-mark beam therefrom wherein the second surface opposite a first surface of the wafer facing the reticle; and (c)applying the optical system for directing the wafer-mark beam to the alignment detector for precisely aligning the reticle and the wafer.
