An alignment mark for the coarse alignment and fine alignment of a semiconductor wafer in an exposure tool includes a first partial structure for generating a first reflection pattern in the exposure tool for the fine alignment of the semiconductor wafer, and a second partial structure for generating a second reflection pattern in the exposure tool for the coarse alignment of the semiconductor wafer. The first partial structure has a plurality of first structure elements, which are arranged relatively parallel and in a manner lying next to one another with a predetermined distance between midpoints symmetrically around the center of an inner region. The second partial structure has a plurality of second structure elements, formed in a manner corresponding to a pattern stored in the exposure tool and being arranged in the inner region.
