ABSTRACT:
This specification discloses a method of aligning a mask and a wafer for manufacturing semiconductor circuit elements into a predetermined positional relationship. The method comprises two steps. In a first step, the mask and wafer are aligned by the use of relatively large alignment marks provided on the mask and wafer. In a second step, the mask and wafer are aligned by using relatively small key patterns provided on the mask and wafer and having substantially no positional deviation with respect to actual element (circuit) patterns.
