Abstract
An apparatus relating to the manufacture of stacked semiconductor devices includes, for example, a first holding section configured to hold a first semiconductor device and a second holding section configured to hold a second semiconductor device. Additionally, a measuring section including an imaging device for acquiring images of the first and second semiconductor devices and a control section configured to control the holding sections to correct misalignment between the semiconductor devices. The control section is further configured to determine misalignment using the images of the first and second semiconductor devices when the images include a first alignment mark disposed proximate to an edge of the first semiconductor device and a second alignment mark disposed proximate to an edge of the second semiconductor device.
