Zusammenfassung:A method for generation a structure comprising a first grating at a first pitch in a first layer of a multi- layer stack structure; and a second grating at a second pitch in a second layer of the multi-layer stack structure, wherein, when illuminated by incident radiation, scattered radiation from the measurement structure forms an interference pattern at a detector, wherein the interference pattern comprises at 5 least a first Moire interference component and a second Moire interference component, is described. A method for measuring a parameter of interest in a manufacturing process based on the measurement structure is described, comprising obtaining an interference pattern for the measurement structure, identifying a first Moire interference component and identifying a second Moire interference component in the interference pattern; and determining the measurement of a parameter of interest 0 based on the first Moire interference component and the second Moire interference component.
