ABSTRACT:
A high-contrast image recognition can be performed by recognizing an image of a recognition mark from a back surface of a wafer by a visible-light camera by irradiating a visible light from a circuit pattern surface of a silicon substrate. A thickness of the silicon substrate is set to 5 μm to 50 μm. A white or visible light having a wavelength equal to or less than 800 nm is irradiated onto the circuit-pattern forming surface of the substrate. A visible light that has transmitted through the silicon substrate is received by a visible-light camera on a side of a back surface of the silicon substrate. An image of a recognition mark formed on the circuit-pattern forming surface of the silicon substrate is recognized by the visible-light camera.
