Abstract
A surface defect inspection apparatus includes a light source that emits light to a first position on a surface of a target at an angle inclined with respect to the surface of the target, a first photodetector that detects first reflected light of the light from the light source, the first reflected light being reflected at the first position, a second photodetector that detects second reflected light of the light from the light source, the second reflected light being reflected at a second position, the second position being closer to the light source than the first position and being separated from the surface of the target by a given distance, and a determining unit that determines whether or not foreign matter is present on the surface of the target on a basis of detection results obtained from the first photodetector and the second photodetector.
