Abstract
An exposure apparatus for exposing, to a pattern of a first object, a second object by use of light is disclosed. The apparatus includes a light source for supplying light having a predetermined wavelength, for exposing the second object to the pattern of the first object, a detecting device for detecting a change in the wavelength of the light from the light source, and a control device operable in response to a signal from the detecting device, to bring the second object substantially unexposed to the pattern of the first object.
