More Information
Summary:An apparatus performs an alignment measurement for a mark of each of at least two shots selected from a plurality of shots on a substrate, and positions the substrate based on the alignment measurements to transfer a pattern to each the plurality of shots. The apparatus comprises a detector configured to detect the mark and a controller configured to control the alignment measurements. The controller is configured to cause the detector to detect two of the mark, and decide whether the alignment measurements include an erroneous measurement based on whether a distance between the two of the mark detected by the detector is outside a tolerance.
