Abstract
The present invention provides an overlay mark, including a substrate and plural sets of first pattern block and second pattern block. A first direction and a second direction are defined on the substrate, wherein the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other. In each set, the first pattern block is rotational symmetrical to the second pattern block. Each first pattern block includes a big frame and plural small frame. Each second pattern block includes a big frame and plural small frame. The width of the big frame is greater than three times of the width of the small frame. The present invention further provides a method for evaluating the stability of a semiconductor manufacturing process.
