Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain fine alignment of the street by a method wherein reflected light from the street is detected by the photo detectors of two pieces, and the wafer is transferred as to equalize outputs. CONSTITUTION:The photo detectors 13A, 13B are arranged as to make a right angle with the street 31. Relation between width W of the street 31, the beam diameter D of reflected light 11D and the distance L1 between the photo detectors 13A, 13B is set as D>M, C>L1. Reflected light 11D is obtained extending over a chip 4, the street 31 and a chip 5, and the photo detectors 13A, 13B detect reflected light 11D simultaneously. When outputs of the photo detectors 13A, 13B are equal, it indicates that the center of the street 31 and the center of reflected light 11D coincide. By transferring the wafer 1 as to equalize outputs, fine alignment of the street 31 can be attained.
