摘要: An imprint apparatus for forming a pattern of an imprint material on a substrate using a mold includes a plurality of alignment scopes and a control unit. The control unit controls aligning of a shot region of the substrate and the mold based on outputs from the plurality of alignment scopes. Each of the plurality of alignment scopes outputs information indicating a relative position of a first mark selected from a plurality of first marks in the shot region and a second mark selected from a plurality of second marks on the mold. The control unit controls aligning of the shot region and the mold based on information excluding incorrect information from a plurality of pieces of information output from the plurality of alignment scopes.

摘要: An image processing apparatus includes an imaging unit, a determination unit, and a discrimination unit. The imaging unit images a target object using signals in a predetermined wavelength band in which a spectral transmittance of a specific substance of a plurality of substances on a surface of the target object is different from a spectral transmittance of the other substances of the plurality of substances. The determination unit determines a distribution state of the specific substance on the surface of the target object based on an image captured by the imaging unit. The discrimination unit discriminates a class to which the target object belongs based on the distribution state of the specific substance.

摘要: An imprint apparatus is operable to perform an imprint process, which is for forming a pattern on an imprint material on a substrate by using a mold, for each of shot regions of the substrate. The apparatus includes a controller configured to control alignment between the mold and the substrate. The controller determines a target position obtained by adding a predetermined additional amount to a movement amount of a substrate stage according to a positional deviation between the mold and the substrate, starts movement of the stage towards the determined target position, and starts curing of the imprint material by a curing device at a timing at which the detected positional deviation falls within an allowable range during the movement of the stage.
