When a reticle stage capable of moving while holding a reticle is at a predetermined unloading position, an unloading arm performs unloading of a reticle. Also, the instant or immediately after the reticle is separated from the reticle stage by the unloading arm, the reticle stage is moved to a predetermined loading position where a reticle is loaded onto the reticle stage by a loading arm. This allows the reticle to be loaded onto the reticle stage before the unloading arm completely withdraws from the unloading position, which reduces the downtime between the retile unloading and the reticle loading. Accordingly, the throughput of the exposure apparatus can be improved, since the time required for reticle exchange is reduced.

Reticle-holding devices (reticle nullpodsnull) are disclosed for holding circular reticles as used microlithography systems that use circular reticles. An exemplary reticle pod includes a base and cover. Mounted to the base are multiple (desirably three) reticle-support blocks providing three respective, equally spaced, reticle-contact surfaces that support a reticle in the peripheral nullhandling zonenull of the reticle. Mounted to the inside surface of the cover are corresponding compliant pressure-application members (desirably respective flat springs terminating with respective reticle-contact members) that apply a holding force to the reticle. A respective portion of the reticle is situated between each pressure-application member and a respective reticle-support surface. Thus, the reticle, configured as a SEMI standard wafer, is stably held at three points in the handling zone of the reticle without damaging the reticle.

An electrical characteristics evaluation apparatus comprises a terahertz pulse light source that irradiates terahertz pulse light onto a semiconductor material, a light detector that detects pulse light having been transmitted through or having been reflected by the semiconductor material, a measurement device that obtains a spectral transmittance or a spectral reflectance by using a time-series waveform of the electric field intensity of the transmitted pulse light or the reflected pulse light and an arithmetic operation unit that calculates an electrical characteristics parameter of the semiconductor material based upon the spectral transmittance or the spectral reflectance. By adopting this electrical characteristics evaluation apparatus and the corresponding electrical characteristics evaluation method, the electrical material quantities (such as the carrier density, the mobility, the resistivity and the electrical conductivity) of the measurement target, i.e.,the semiconductor material, can be measured and inspected without contaminating or damaging the semiconductor material.
