    摘要: The present invention relates to a method of recording secondary information on a record carrier, in particular on an optical record carrier, besides its content information, whereby it is possible to differentiate the record carrier from other record carrier bearing the same content information, for example by recording an individual identifier. The secondary information is recorded by: forming at predetermined positions dummy patterns (23), preferably at the same moment as when recording the content information, and recording the secondary information by selectively modifying the dummy patterns, thereby obtaining modified dummy patterns (24), wherein the dummy patterns as well as the modified dummy patterns correspond to valid channel words. The invention further relates to an apparatus for recording secondary information, to a record carrier, and to a method and to an apparatus for reproducing the secondary information.

Each frame comprises a frame sync patterns followed by DC control blocks each including a DC control bit. Two modulation tables are used. Each bit of the secondary signal is represented by a relationship between the polarity of the frame sync signal and the values of the DC control bits in a fashion which complies with the constraints of the modulation code and the DC control algorithm.

    摘要: Presently known d=1 codes have long trains consisting of consecutive 2T runs and an overall high frequency of occurrence of the shortest 2T runs that reduce the performance of the bit detector By using a code with an MTR constraint of 2 an improvement in the bit detection is achieved. A code constructed in a systematic way that provides an MTR constraint of 2 is presented. A variation of such a code is disclosed where one sub-code is used, where coding states are divided into coding classes and where code words are divided into code word types. Then, for a given sub-code, an code word of type t can be concatenated with an code word of the next sub-code if said subsequent code word of said next sub-code belongs to one of coding states of the coding class with index Tmax+1 t. In the code according to the invention the overall code has the property that the respective channel bit sequences that are encoded from the same message-bit sequence, starting from any possible state of the finite-state-machine, for each of the two values of a DC-control bit, that is part of a given user word have opposite parities for the sequences generated from the starting state up to the state where both encoder paths merge. For the case that the encoder paths do not merge, there is no such constraint. Finally, a new d=1, k=10 sliding-block decodable RLL code is disclosed with the following properties: (i) it has an r=2 constraint which is the lowest MTR value that is compatible with a rate R=⅔; (ii) it enables practical SISO-RLL decoding because of its compact 2-to-3 mapping; and (iii) the new code uses a parity-complementary word assignment4 (PCWA) for DC-control.

    摘要: A target for measuring an overlay error or a critical dimension of a substrate comprises a grating. In one example, lines of the grating are arranged at an angle of about 45° with respect to edges of the target. As a consequence, the diffraction order of the grating reflection has its sub-maxima not aligned along the line on which the other diffraction orders are positioned, and overlap of intensity with other diffraction orders is reduced.

    摘要: Calibration of an angularly resolved scatterometer is performed by measuring a target in two or more different arrangements. The different arrangements cause radiation being measured in an outgoing direction to be different combinations of radiation illuminating the target from ingoing directions. A reference mirror measurement may also be performed. The measurements and modeling of the difference between the first and second arrangements is used to estimate separately properties of the ingoing and outgoing optical systems. The modeling may account for symmetry of the respective periodic target. The modeling typically accounts for polarizing effects of the ingoing optical elements, the outgoing optical elements and the respective periodic target. The polarizing effects may be described in the modeling by Jones calculus or Mueller calculus. The modeling may include a parameterization in terms of basis functions such as Zernike polynomials.
