ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides for a method for adjusting an alignment microscope. In the method of the present invention an alignment mask is used in which the one side comprises at least one alignment mark and the other side is reflective. For the adjustment, the microscope is first focused to the alignment mark and then refocused to the mirror image of the alignment mark generated by the reflective side. The microscope is then adjusted by comparing the positions of the alignment mark and the generated mirror image of the alignment mark until the alignment mark overlaps its mirror image. Moreover, a device for adjusting an alignment microscope in accordance with the method of the present invention.
