Abstract
A device manufacturing method includes: exposing a first substrate using a lithographic apparatus to form a patterned layer having first features; processing the first substrate to transfer the first features into the first substrate; determining displacements of the first features from their nominal positions in the first substrate; determining a correction to at least partly compensate for the displacements; and exposing a second substrate using a lithographic apparatus to form a patterned layer having the first features, wherein the correction is applied for or during the exposing the second substrate.
