Abstract: An apparatus to measure the position of a mark, the apparatus including an objective lens to direct radiation on a mark using radiation supplied by an illumination arrangement; an optical arrangement to receive radiation diffracted and specularly reflected by the mark, wherein the optical arrangement is configured to provide a first image and a second image, the first image being formed by coherently adding specularly reflected radiation and positive diffraction order radiation and the second image being formed by coherently adding specularly reflected radiation and negative diffraction order radiation; and a detection arrangement to detect variation in an intensity of radiation of the first and second images and to calculate a position of the mark in a direction of measurement therefrom.
