Zusammenfassung: | Disclosed is a method for determining a mechanical property of a layer applied to a substrate. The method comprises obtaining input data comprising metrology data relating to said layer and layout data relating to a layout of a pattern to be applied in said layer. A first model or first model term is used to determine a global mechanical property related to said layer based on at least said input data; and at least one second model or at least one second model term is used to predict a mechanical property distribution or associated overlay map based on said first mechanical property and said layout data, the mechanical property distribution describing the mechanical property variation over said layer. |
