ABSTRACT:
A method for monitoring overlay of a direct-write system. The method includes providing a substrate having a pattern formed thereon by the direct-write system, generating data associated with the substrate pattern, decomposing the data by applying a transformation matrix, and determining an overlay index based on the decomposed data, the overlay index corresponding to a variation component of the substrate pattern relative to a target pattern.
