Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for detecting focus variation in a lithographic process using photomasks having test patterns adapted to print test features with critical dimensions that can be measured and analyzed to determine magnitude and direction of defocus from a best focus position of an exposure tool during the lithographic process.
