Abstract: Disclosed is an optical imaging system, and associated method, comprising a stage module configured to support an object such that an area of the object is illuminated by an illumination beam; an objective lens configured to collect at least one signal beam, the at least one signal beam originating from the illuminated area of the object; an image sensor configured to capture an image formed by the at least one signal beam collected by the objective lens; and a motion compensatory mechanism operable to compensate for relative motion of the stage module with respect to the objective lens during an image acquisition. The motion compensatory mechanism causes a compensatory motion of one or more of: said objective lens or at least one optical element thereof; said image sensor; and/or an optical element comprised within a detection branch and/or illumination branch of the optical imaging system.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to determining information about a target structure formed on a substrate using a lithographic process. In one arrangement, a cantilever probe is provided having a cantilever arm and a probe element. The probe element extends from the cantilever arm towards the target structure. Ultrasonic waves are generated in the cantilever probe. The ultrasonic waves propagate through the probe element into the target structure and reflect back from the target structure into the probe element or into a further probe element extending from the cantilever arm. The reflected ultrasonic waves are detected and used to determine information about the target structure.

Abstract: A target structure (T) made by lithography or used in lithography is inspected by irradiating the structure at least a first time with EUV radiation (304) generated by inverse Compton scattering. Radiation (308) scattered by the target structure in reflection or transmission is detected (312) and properties of the target structure are calculated by a processor (340) based on the detected scattered radiation. The radiation may have a first wavelength in the EUV range of 0.1 nm to 125 nm. Using the same source and controlling an electron energy, the structure may be irradiated multiple times with different wavelengths within the EUV range, and/or with shorter (x-ray) wavelengths and/or with longer (UV, visible) wavelengths. By rapid switching of electron energy in the inverse Compton scattering source, irradiation at different wavelengths can be performed several times per second.
