ABSTRACT:
An exposure apparatus for exposing a substrate. A stage holds and moves the substrate, a measuring device measures a position of a surface of the substrate, and a controller defines an arrangement of measurement points with respect to each of a plurality of shot regions arranged along a straight line, and causes the measuring device to sequentially measure positions of the surface with respect to the defined measurement points in the plurality of shot regions, while the stage moves the substrate along the straight line. A timing at which the measuring device measures a position of the surface is controlled so that a first time interval and a second time interval are different from each other.
