Abstract: An object is to allow for simple measurement of a bump height. There is provided a device for measuring a bump height comprising: a light sensor provided with a light source and a light-receiving element and configured to irradiate a substrate including a seed layer, a resist layer formed on the seed layer and a bump formed in an opening of the resist layer, with light emitted from the light source and to detect reflected light that is reflected from the seed layer via the resist layer and reflected light that is reflected from the bump, by the light-receiving element; and a control device configured to calculate a height of the bump relative to the seed layer, based on the reflected light from the seed layer and the reflected light from the bump and to subtract an error caused by a refractive index of the resist layer from the height of the bump calculated based on the reflected lights, so as to correct the height of the bump.

Abstract: A method which can perform a soft pre-wetting treatment of a substrate, such as a wafer, with use of a pre-wetting liquid in a smaller amount. This method includes: holding a substrate between a first holding member and a second holding member, with the surface of the substrate being exposed through an opening of the second holding member, and pressing a sealing ridge of the substrate holder against a peripheral portion of the substrate; pressing a sealing block against the substrate holder; forming a vacuum in an external space; performing a seal inspection to check a sealed state provided by the sealing ridge based on a change in pressure in the external space; and performing a pre-wetting treatment by supplying a pre-wetting liquid to the external space while evacuating air from the external space to bring the pre-wetting liquid into contact with the exposed surface of the substrate.

Abstract: A device for inspecting a bump height includes an illumination device, an imaging device, and a control device. The illumination device irradiates a substrate with light. The substrate includes a resist and a bump formed on an opening portion of the resist. The imaging device images a pattern of the resist and the bump. The control device evaluates a height of the bump based on a luminance value of image data of the pattern obtained by the imaging device.
