Abstract:
An array of alignment marks can be formed in a substrate, and at least one material portion can be deposited and patterned. A photoresist material layer can be deposited and patterned to provide a kerf-region photoresist material portion. The overlay between the kerf-region photoresist material portion and a proximal alignment mark is measured employing a ultraviolet radiation that is focused at a focal plane located at or near a top surface of the kerf-region photoresist material portion.
