Zusammenfassung:A method for providing temporary measurement targets during a multiple patterning process which can be removed in the completion of the process. The metrology target is defined in either the first or the second exposure of a multiple exposure process and whether or not it is temporary or made permanent is selected according to whether or not the area of the target is covered or cleared out in the other exposure. The use of temporary targets reduces the amount of space on the substrate that must be devoted to targets.
