Abstract
According to an embodiment, focus sensitivity information in which focus sensitivity expressing a relation between an aberration correction value set in an exposure device and a best focus when a pattern is formed on a first substrate by exposure of the exposure device using the aberration correction value, and the pattern are correlated is input. Moreover, on the basis of the focus sensitivity information and a surface height difference of a second substrate, the aberration correction value in which best focuses for a pattern group to be formed on the second substrate by exposure satisfy a first condition is calculated. In addition, the second substrate is exposed by the exposure device using the aberration correction value satisfying the first condition.
