Zusammenfassung:Disclosed is method of optimizing bandwidth of measurement illumination for a measurement application, and an associated metrology apparatus. The method comprises performing a reference measurement (305) with reference measurement illumination having a reference bandwidth and performing one or more optimization measurements (310), each of said one or more optimization measurements being performed with measurement illumination having a varied candidate bandwidth. The one or more optimization measurements are compared with the reference measurement; and an optimal bandwidth for the measurement application is selected (330) based on the comparison.
