    摘要: A method for optimizing an alignment condition of a lithographic projection apparatus. This method comprises projecting a beam of radiation on a target portion of a substrate and measuring a plurality of diffracted signals emitted by the target portion. This method further comprises calculating a variance for each of the plurality of diffracted signals, such that a plurality of variances of the diffracted signals is determined, and adjusting the alignment condition of the lithographic projection apparatus based on analysis of the plurality of variances.

    摘要: A method according to one embodiment of the invention relates to determining at least one parameter of a model that provides information about a position of an object. The object has a plurality of alignment marks of which desired positions are known. The method includes measuring a plurality of positional parameters for each alignment mark. Based on the measured plurality of positional parameters, which are weighted with weighing coefficients, at least one parameter of the model of the object is determined. The numerical value of each weighing coefficient is determined together with the at least one parameter of the model.
