Abstract
An imprint apparatus that forms a pattern by imprinting an imprint material on a substrate using an original, includes: an original support unit; a substrate support unit; a driving unit relatively driving the original support unit and the substrate support unit; a detection unit detecting a first alignment mark of the original and a second alignment mark of the substrate; a position adjustment unit adjusting a relative position between the original and the detection unit; and a control unit controlling the position adjustment unit to adjust a relative position between the original and the detection unit based on a position of the first alignment mark detected by the detection unit in a field of view of the detection unit during imprinting, and perform an alignment between the substrate and the original by the driving unit based on the first and second alignment marks detected by the detection unit.
