Abstract

An alignment device (10) for a planar element (2) includes an imaging section (11) to image a picture of a non-rotational symmetry-shaped alignment mark M provided on the planar element (2), a position detection section (12) to detect a position of the alignment mark M from the image, a position adjustment section (13) to adjust a relative position of a specified reference position and the planar element (2) in accordance with a detected position of the alignment mark M, and an orientation detection section (14) to detect an orientation of the planar element (2) in accordance with the non-rotational symmetry of the alignment mark M imaged on a picture.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the production process of transparent plates and sheets such as liquid crystal panels, electronic paper, organic EL (Electro-Luminescence: electroluminescence), or circuit boards and semiconductor integrated circuits. An apparatus and method for aligning a planar object such as a photomask used in a semiconductor integrated circuit manufacturing process. Background technique [0002] For plate-shaped objects, sheets, substrates, semiconductor In manufacturing equipment that handles planar workpieces such as wafers and planar components such as photomasks, the positions of these planar workpieces and components are automatically detected for alignment. For the sake of simplicity in the following description, workpieces such as plate-shaped objects, sheets, substrates, and semiconductor wafers, and members on the manufacturing apparatus side such as photomasks may be simply referred to as “workpieces”. [0003] The foll...
