Abstract

A method including: obtaining a relationship between a performance indicator of a substrate measurement recipe and a parameter of the substrate measurement recipe; deriving a range of the parameter from the relationship, wherein absolute values of the performance indicator satisfy a first condition or a magnitude of variation of the performance indicator satisfies a second condition, when the first parameter is in the range; selecting a substrate measurement recipe that has the parameter in the range; and inspecting a substrate with the selected substrate measurement recipe.
