Abstract:
A surface inspection apparatus and method, and a method of manufacturing a display device are disclosed. In one aspect, the surface inspection method includes placing an object on a stage comprising a top surface inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to a plane having a first direction and a second direction crossing the first direction. The method also includes irradiating light onto the object via a surface inspection unit. The method also includes obtaining a first image comprising first interference fringes captured by the imaging device, moving at least one of the surface inspection unit and the stage in at least one of the first and second directions, obtaining a second image including second interference fringes captured by the imaging device, and moving the surface inspection unit in the third direction so as to correct movement of the second interference fringes with respect to the first interference fringes.
