Abstract:
A pattern forming apparatus according to an embodiment includes: a pre-alignment unit that performs pre-alignment for a substrate; a transfer unit that transfers the substrate into the pre-alignment unit; a placing table on which the substrate transferred into the pre-alignment unit is placed; a position detecting unit provided at a position included in the placing table and overlapping with an edge of the substrate, and adapted to detect a position of the edge of the substrate; and a control unit that calculates a positional displacement amount of the substrate from the position of the edge of the substrate detected by the position detecting unit, and controls the placing table on the basis of the positional displacement amount of the substrate to correct the position of the substrate.

Claim (Index 16):
A manufacturing method for a semiconductor device executed by a pattern forming apparatus that forms a pattern on a substrate, the method comprising:\n preparing the substrate, transferring the substrate into a processing unit and processing the substrate; placing the substrate on a placing table inside the processing unit; detecting a position of an edge of the substrate, calculating a positional displacement amount of the substrate from detection data, and determining whether positional displacement of the substrate is caused; and stopping the processing inside the processing unit in a case where positional displacement of the substrate is caused.
