Exposure method using reference marks on both the mask and the substrate and capable of providing high alignment precision even after multiple exposures

摘要

Alignment between a mask and a photosensitive substrate is performed using a first reference mark formed on the mask and a second reference mark formed on the photosensitive substrate. After that, the mask and the photosensitive substrate are relatively moved, so that an image of one of a light-shielding pattern and a light-transmitting pattern formed at a position different from the first reference mark on the mask is formed on the second reference mark on the photosensitive substrate. Then, a circuit pattern formed on the mask is transferred onto the photosensitive substrate, and a partial region including the second reference mark is exposed with the image of one of the light- shielding pattern and the light-transmitting pattern.
