    Abstract: A method for determining lithographic matching performance includes obtaining first monitoring data E1M, E3M, E4M from recurrent monitoring for stability control for the available EUV scanners EUV1, EUV3 and EUV4. For a DUV scanner, second monitoring data D2M, is similarly obtained from recurrent monitoring (DMW, MT, OV, SM) for stability control. The EUV monitoring data E1M, E3M, E4M are in a first layout. The DUV monitoring data D2M are in a second layout. A cross-platform overlay matching performance between the first lithographic apparatus and the second lithographic apparatus is determined based on the first monitoring data and the second monitoring data. This is done by reconstructing 900, 1000 at least one of the first and second monitoring data into a common layout E1S, E3S, E4S, D2S to allow comparison 802 of the first and second monitoring data.

    Abstract: A device manufacturing method comprising: exposing a first substrate using a lithographic apparatus to form a patterned layer comprising first features; processing the first substrate to transfer the first features into the first substrate; determining displacements of the first features from their nominal positions in the first substrate; determining a correction to at least partly compensate for the displacements; and exposing a second substrate using a lithographic apparatus to form a patterned layer comprising the first features; wherein the correction is applied during the exposing the second substrate.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of determining the presence of stressors on a substrate. The method comprises obtaining substrate position data describing positional information of structures on the substrate in a substrate plane; obtaining substrate shape data describing a shape of the substrate; determining a first warp value from the substrate position data, the first warp value describing a warpage of the substrate; determining a second warp value from the substrate shape data, the second warp value describing the warpage of the substrate; and determining the presence of stressors on a back-side of the substrate based on the first warp value and second warp value.
