1. An apparatus for manufacturing electronic devices, comprising:
a laser device to generate laser beams;
a masking unit having a masking substrate to shape beam spots of the laser beams;
a first stage to place a first substrate which carries an object to be transferred;
a second stage to place a second substrate to which the object to be transferred is transferred;
an adhesive agent applying unit to apply an adhesive agent on the object to be transferred or on a transferred position on the second substrate; and
a control unit to control at least one of the first and the second stages, the control unit transferring the object to be transferred from the first substrate to the second substrate by moving at least one of the first and the second stages to perform an inter-substrate alingment of the masking substrate, the first and the second substrates, adhering the first and the second substrates, irradiating a laser beam onto the object to be transferred, and moving the first and the second substrates away from each other.
