Abstract
A polishing apparatus includes a holder holding a target. A polisher polishes the target. An irradiator irradiates the target with an irradiation light from below the polisher. A photoreceiver receives a reflection light reflected from the polishing target to detect a relation between a wavelength and a light quantity of the reflection light. A first reflector bends the irradiation light from the irradiator in a direction tilted to the polishing target. A second reflector bends the reflection light from the polishing target to the photoreceiver. The first reflector irradiates the polishing target with the irradiation light in a direction tilted to the polishing target.
