ABSTRACT:
A projection exposure apparatus includes different wavelength alignment systems and exposure wavelength alignment systems for positional adjustment for a mask and a substrate. A fiducial plate with incused diffraction grating marks is used on a substrate stage for alignment. Positional discrepancy amounts between marks on the mask and marks on the fiducial plate are previously determined at various measuring points on the fiducial plate. The discrepancy results from difference in drawing error on the fiducial plate. When a mask having different mark positions is used for overlay exposure, the mask and the substrate undergo positional adjustment in accordance with change in positions of the alignment systems by using the previously determined positional discrepancy amounts.
