First Claim
1. A method for determining an offset between a center of a substrate and a center of a depression in a chuck, comprising:
- providing a test substrate to the depression, the test substrate having a dimension smaller than a dimension of the depression;
measuring a position of an alignment mark of the test substrate while in the depression; and
determining the offset between the center of the substrate and the center of the depression from the position of the alignment mark.

Abstract
A part of a plate of a predetermined shape detachably mounted on a moving body is detected by an alignment system while the position of the moving body is measured by a measurement unit that sets a movement coordinate system of the movement body, and based on the detection results and the measurement results of the measurement unit corresponding to the detection results, position information of an outer periphery edge of the plate is obtained. Therefore, even if there are no alignment marks on the moving body for position measurement, the position of the plate, or in other words, the position of the moving body can be controlled on the movement coordinate system set by the measurement unit, based on the position information of the outer periphery edge of the plate.
