Abstract:
There is provided a method of adjusting a plating apparatus and a measuring apparatus that can obtain position adjustment amounts/a position adjustment amount of a substrate holder, an anode holder, a regulation plate, and/or a paddle without carrying out plating treatment. There is provided the method of adjusting the plating apparatus that has a plating bath configured to be able to hold the substrate holder, the anode holder, and an electric field adjusting plate. The method of adjusting the plating apparatus has the steps of: installing a first jig at a position in the plating bath where the substrate holder is installed; installing a second jig at a position in the plating bath where the anode holder or the electric field adjusting plate is installed; measuring a positional relation between the first jig and the second jig installed in the plating bath using a sensor included in either of the first jig and the second jig; and adjusting an installation position of the substrate holder, the anode holder, or the electric field adjusting plate based on the measured positional relation.

Claim (Index 1):
A measuring apparatus that measures positions in a plating bath where a substrate holder, an anode holder, and an electric field adjusting plate are arranged, the measuring apparatus comprising:\n a first jig installed at a position in the plating bath where the substrate holder is installed; and a second jig installed at a position in the plating bath where the anode holder or the electric field adjusting plate is installed, wherein either of the first jig and the second jig includes sensors, and wherein the sensors are configured to measure a positional relation between the first jig and the second jig.
