Assignee: ASML NETHERLANDS B.V.
Field: Optics (Instruments)
Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 15:
16. A non-transient computer program carrier comprising instructions therein, that when executed by a computer system, are configured to cause the computer system to at least:
obtain measurement data relating to a process parameter of a manufacturing process for a region on a substrate, the manufacturing process for providing structures to the region, the region comprising a plurality of sub-regions;
determine, based on the measurement data, a first layer correction for control of a manufacturing apparatus used in the manufacturing process, wherein the first layer correction is configured for application with respect to a boundary region and a remainder of at least one of the sub-regions and configured to better correct the process parameter across the boundary between two of the sub-regions with respect to within the remainder of the two sub-regions in providing structures to a first layer of the substrate and wherein the determination of an amount or type of first layer correction for the boundary region of the at least one sub-region is dependent on the determination of an amount or type of first layer correction for the remainder of the at least one sub-region or vice versa;
determine a second layer correction for control of the manufacturing process based on a separate consideration for each of the plurality of sub-regions of the first layer, the second layer correction for providing second layer structures to the region on the substrate in a second layer and configured for a different size area than the first layer correction; and
cause application of the first layer and/or second layer correction for control of the at least one manufacturing apparatus and/or output a signal representing, or based on, the first layer and/or second layer correction to a tool or system for enabling control of the at least one manufacturing apparatus.
