System and method for improving the throughput of a nanoimprint system

An imprinting method and system in which, a template is imprinted onto formable material at a plurality of locations on a substrate. A template filling time varies among the plurality of locations. The template filling time for each of the locations is determined prior to applying the formable mater...

Zusammenfassung:	An imprinting method and system in which, a template is imprinted onto formable material at a plurality of locations on a substrate. A template filling time varies among the plurality of locations. The template filling time for each of the locations is determined prior to applying the formable material to the substrate. The template is aligned to the substrate each time the template is imprinted onto the formable material during an alignment convergence period that is determined to have completed when real time alignment data indicates that alignment of the template and the substrate is within specified limits. The alignment convergence period and the template filing period overlap. Curing the formable material in the template at each of the plurality of locations after both the alignment convergence period has completed and the template filing period has expired.
