The interference fringes are projected onto a diffraction grating through an achromatizing optical system and the project lens system. Diffracted light returning from the diffraction grating is received by a photodetector which provides a light beat signal. A position deviation signal obtained by phase comparison of the light beat signal provides position alignment by controlling relative positions between the position alignment blank and the diffraction grating.
