An exposure apparatus that performs an exposure operation of exposing a substrate via a projection optical system is provided. The apparatus includes a temperature regulator configured to regulate a temperature distribution on an optical element of the projection optical system, and a controller configured to perform, in an exposure operation period in which the exposure operation is executed, a first process of controlling the temperature regulator so as to reduce a change of aberration of the projection optical system caused by execution of the exposure operation. In accordance with detection of a predetermined event before the exposure operation period, the controller performs, before performing the first process, a second process for reducing the aberration of the projection optical system using a method different from the first process.

Exposure apparatus, exposure method, and article manufacturing method

An information processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire process information about a substrate process, the process information including process data and a process condition, and a display control unit configured to control a display on a display apparatus based on the process information acquired by the acquisition unit, wherein the display control unit selectively displays, on the display apparatus, a first screen that displays the process data of a lot including a plurality of substrates on a lot-by-lot basis and a second screen that displays the process data of a first lot on a substrate-by-substrate basis, the first lot being a lot designated by a user from the lot displayed on the first screen.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method

An information processing apparatus for acquiring an inspection condition for performing an inspection on a pattern formed by a lithography apparatus that forms a pattern on a substrate with an original includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire a second inspection condition to be applied in a case where an inspection is performed on a second pattern by inputting third information indicating a state of the lithography apparatus acquired when the second pattern is formed to a model, wherein the model is acquired by machine learning with learning data including first information indicating a state of the lithography apparatus acquired when a first pattern is formed and second information indicating a first inspection condition applied when an inspection is performed on the first pattern.

Information processing apparatus, storage medium, lithography apparatus, lithography system, and article manufacturing method

A substrate processing apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes an imaging unit that images a mark on a substrate, and a processor that aligns the substrate based on an image of the mark obtained by the imaging unit. If the alignment has failed, the processor identifies a factor of the failure based on information including the image and executes at least one of a plurality of recovery processes based on the identified factor. The processor includes an output unit that outputs a condition for the at least one of recovery processes in accordance with an inference model, and a learning unit that learns the inference model based on an execution result of the at least one of the recovery processes under the condition output from the output unit.
