Abstract: The determination of in-plane distortions of a substrate includes measuring one or more out-of-plane distortions of the substrate in an unchucked state, determining an effective film stress of a film on the substrate in the unchucked state based on the measured out-of-plane distortions of the substrate in the unchucked state, determining in-plane distortions of the substrate in a chucked state based on the effective film stress of the film on the substrate in the unchucked state and adjusting at least one of a process tool or an overlay tool based on at least one of the measured out-of-plane distortions or the determined in-plane distortions.
