Abstract
Proposed are a wafer position detection apparatus and a wafer position detection and correction method using the same. More specifically, proposed is an apparatus for wafer placement teaching for adjusting a position of a wafer disposed on an electrostatic chuck, the apparatus including a laser distance sensor disposed above the electrostatic chuck, and a controller configured to control a robot configured to transfer the wafer. The controller checks a relative position of the electrostatic chuck and the wafer disposed on the electrostatic chuck using the laser distance sensor so that the wafer is transferred to a predetermined position, and teaches the position of the wafer using the checked relative position of the electrostatic chuck and the wafer.
