Abstract:
An alignment mark determines alignment of a first and a second exposure on a substrate on a macro level and a micro level. The alignment mark includes a first alignment pattern projected during the first exposure and a second alignment pattern projected during the second exposure. The alignment mark includes a first sub-mark at least partially defined by the first alignment pattern and a second sub-mark at least partially defined by the second alignment pattern. Relative positions of the first and second sub-marks on the substrate are representative for alignment of the first and second exposures on the macro level. At least one sub-mark is defined by image lines of the first alignment pattern and the second alignment pattern, and wherein relative positions of image lines of the first alignment pattern and image lines of the second alignment pattern of the at least one sub-mark are representative for alignment of the first and second exposures on the micro level.
