Patent ID: 7630052

Claim:
An exposure processing system comprising: an exposure apparatus to expose a resist on a wafer; a heating apparatus comprising a plurality of heating apparatus units, the heating apparatus heating the exposed resist on the wafer by a heating apparatus unit selected from the plurality of heating apparatus units; a developing apparatus comprising a plurality of developing apparatus units, the developing apparatus developing the exposed and heated resist on the wafer by a developing apparatus unit selected from the plurality of developing apparatus units; and a control apparatus to control the exposure apparatus by using correction data so that a wafer on a process object is exposed, the correction data being data for correcting a dimensional dispersion of a resist pattern in a wafer plane caused by a pair of a heating apparatus unit and a developing apparatus unit used for the wafer on the process object, the pair comprising a heating apparatus unit of the plurality of heating apparatus units used for the wafer on the process object and a developing apparatus unit of the plurality of developing apparatus units used for the wafer on the process object, wherein the exposure apparatus is a type of exposure apparatus that irradiates a photomask including a pattern with an electromagnetic wave or charged particles, introducing an image of the pattern onto a wafer mounted on a stage via a projection optical system, and transferring the pattern onto the wafer by moving a position of the stage in two dimensional directions, the correction data includes data represented by a function with at least second orders of variables of x and y, wherein the x denotes a point on one coordinate axis and y denotes a point on the other coordinate axis of two dimensional coordinates for representing an arbitrary point on the wafer.
