Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A lithographic cluster includes a track unit and a lithographic apparatus. The lithographic apparatus includes an alignment sensor and at least one controller. The track unit is configured to process a first lot and a second lot. The lithographic apparatus is operatively coupled to the track unit. The alignment sensor is configured to measure an alignment of at least one alignment mark 5 type of a calibration wafer. At least one controller is configured to determine a correction set for calibrating the lithographic apparatus based on the measured alignment of the at least one alignment mark type and apply first and second weight corrections to the correction set for processing the first and second lots, respectively, such that overlay drifts or jumps during processing the first and second lots are mitigated. 10
