摘要: Disclosed is a method of tuning a prediction model relating to at least one particular configuration of a manufacturing device. The method comprises obtaining a function comprising at least a first function of first prediction model parameters associated with said at least one particular configuration, and a second function of the first prediction model parameters and second prediction model parameters associated with configurations of the manufacturing device and/or related devices other than the at least one particular configuration. Values of the first prediction model parameters are obtained based on an optimization of the function, and a prediction model is tuned according to these values of the first prediction model parameters to obtain a tuned prediction mode.

摘要: A method of determining an estimated intensity of radiation scattered by a target illuminated by a radiation source, has the following steps: obtaining and training (402) a library REFLIB of wavelength-dependent reflectivity as a function of the wavelength, target structural parameters and angle of incidence K(λ,θ,x,y); determining (408) a wide-band library (W-BLIB) of integrals of wavelength-dependent reflectivity R of the target in a Jones framework over a range of radiation source wavelengths λ; training (TRN) (410) the wide-band library; and determining (412), using the trained wide-band library, an estimated intensity (INT) of radiation scattered by the target illuminated by the radiation source.

摘要: Generating a control output for a patterning process is described. A control input is received. The control input is for controlling the patterning process. The control input comprises one or more parameters used in the patterning process. The control output is generated with a trained machine learning model based on the control input. The control output comprises an adjustment of the one or more parameters. The machine learning model is trained with training data generated from simulation of the patterning process and/or actual process data. The training data comprises 1) a plurality of training control inputs corresponding to a plurality of operational conditions of the patterning process, where the plurality of operational conditions of the patterning process are associated with operational condition specific behavior of the patterning process over time, and 2) training control outputs generated using a physical model based on the training control inputs.

摘要: Methods for calibrating metrology apparatuses and determining a parameter of interest are disclosed. In one arrangement, training data is provided that comprises detected representations of scattered radiation detected by each of plural metrology apparatuses. An encoder encodes each detected representation to provide an encoded representation, and a decoder generates a synthetic detected representation from the respective encoded representation. A classifier estimates from which metrology apparatus originates each encoded representation or each synthetic detected representation. The training data is used to simultaneously perform, in an adversarial relationship relative to each other, a first machine learning process involving the encoder or decoder and a second machine learning process involving the classifier.

摘要: Disclosed is method of optimizing bandwidth of measurement illumination for a measurement application, and an associated metrology apparatus. The method comprises performing a reference measurement (305) with reference measurement illumination having a reference bandwidth and performing one or more optimization measurements (310), each of said one or more optimization measurements being performed with measurement illumination having a varied candidate bandwidth. The one or more optimization measurements are compared with the reference measurement; and an optimal bandwidth for the measurement application is selected (330) based on the comparison.
