Abstract: Methods and apparatus for forming a patterned layer of material are disclosed. In one arrangement, a deposition-process material is provided in gaseous form. A layer of the deposition-process material is formed on the substrate by causing condensation or deposition of the gaseous deposition-process material. A selected portion of the layer of deposition-process material is irradiated to modify the deposition-process material in the selected portion.

Abstract: Methods of performing metrology. In one arrangement a substrate has a layer. The layer comprises a two-dimensional material. A target portion of the layer is illuminated with a beam of radiation and a distribution of radiation in a pupil plane is detected to obtain measurement data. The measurement data is processed to obtain metrology information about the target portion of the layer. The illuminating, detecting and processing are performed for plural different target portions of the layer to obtain metrology information for the plural target portions of the layer.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for forming a patterned layer of material are disclosed. In one arrangement, a selected portion of a surface of a substrate is irradiated with electromagnetic radiation having a wavelength of less than 100 nm during a deposition process. Furthermore, an electric field controller is configured to apply an electric field that is oriented so as to force secondary electrons away from the substrate. The irradiation locally drives the deposition process in the selected portion and thereby causes the deposition process to, for example, form a layer of material in a pattern defined by the selected portion.
