Abstract:
A lithography apparatus detects a plurality of first substrate-side marks arranged with respect to a part of shot regions on which patterning is to be performed by using the first original in the lithography apparatus and detects a plurality of second substrate-side marks arranged with respect to other shot regions different from the part of the shot regions on which patterning is to be performed by using the second original different from the first original in another lithography apparatus. The lithography apparatus outputs information on detection results of the plurality of second substrate-side marks to be available in the other lithography apparatus. Then, based on detection results of the plurality of first substrate-side marks, the lithography apparatus performs patterning while performing alignment with the first original with respect to the part of the shot regions.

Claim (Index 8):
A lithography apparatus that performs patterning for forming a pattern of an original on a substrate, the apparatus comprising:\n a detector configured to detect marks arranged with respect to a plurality of shot regions of the substrate; and a controller configured to control, based on detection results in the detector, the patterning, and alignment between the shot regions and the original, wherein the controller detects a reference mark out of a plurality of substrate-side marks arranged with respect to, out of the plurality of shot regions, a part of shot regions on which the patterning is to be performed in the lithography apparatus, obtains information on detection results of the plurality of substrate-side marks in another lithography apparatus, and based on the detection results of the plurality of substrate-side marks and the obtained information, performs the patterning while performing alignment with the original with respect to the part of the shot regions.
