Abstract
A circuit pattern exposure method for irradiating illumination light onto a mask to transfer (offset) mask patterns that are formed in the mask to a semiconductor substrate, wherein the mask includes a plurality of main mask patterns that are arranged at a prescribed pitch and auxiliary mask patterns that are arranged outside the outermost main mask pattern and that are not to be transferred (offset) to the semiconductor substrate; the auxiliary mask patterns are provided with a first auxiliary mask row that is arranged adjacent to the outermost main mask pattern and a second auxiliary mask row that is arranged adjacent to the first auxiliary mask row; and the first auxiliary mask row and the second auxiliary mask row are arranged at a pitch that is narrower than the pitch of arrangement of the main mask patterns.
