Beat patterns for alignment on small metrology targets

A target formed on a substrate, the target having: an alignment structure; and a metrology structure; wherein the alignment structure comprises structures that are arranged to generate a beat pattern when the alignment structure is illuminated with source radiation. Advantageously, when the target i...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A target formed on a substrate, the target having: an alignment structure; and a metrology structure; wherein the alignment structure comprises structures that are arranged to generate a beat pattern when the alignment structure is illuminated with source radiation. Advantageously, when the target is illuminated, the beat pattern that appears in an image of the target allows the target to be easily identified using a pattern recognition technique.
