摘要:
An apparatus and method for improved latent overlay metrology is disclosed. In an embodiment, a scatterometer and an overexposed overlay target are used to obtain more robust overlay measurement. Overlay metrology and exposure may be done in parallel.
摘要:
The invention includes a lithographic system having a first source for generating radiation with a first wavelength and an alignment system with a second source for generating radiation with a second wavelength. The second wavelength is larger than the first wavelength. A marker structure is provided having a first layer and a second layer. The second layer is present either directly or indirectly on top of said first layer. The first layer has a first periodic structure and the second layer has a second periodic structure. At least one of the periodic structures has a plurality of features in at least one direction with a dimension smaller than 400 nm. Additionally, a combination of the first and second periodic structure forms a diffractive structure arranged to be illuminated by radiation with the second wavelength.

A method of producing a marker on a substrate includes projecting a patterned beam on a layer of resist disposed on a substrate in a lithographic apparatus to create a latent marker; and locally heating the substrate at the marker location in the lithographic apparatus to transform the latent marker into a detectable marker.
