A method of calibrating a front to backside alignment capable lithographic apparatus. The method includes attaching a substrate having a plurality of alignment marks to a carrier, the substrate being arranged such that the alignment marks face towards the carrier; reducing the thickness of the substrate; using an alignment system of the apparatus to measure the positions of images of alignment marks formed by optics in a substrate table of the apparatus; projecting a pattern onto the substrate, the position of the pattern being determined according to the measured positions of the alignment marks; measuring the positions of the projected pattern and the alignment marks provided on the opposite side of the substrate, the position of the alignment marks provided on the opposite side of the substrate being measured by the alignment system directing radiation through the substrate; and comparing the measured positions in order to determine an overlay error.

A fluid valve is provided that includes a first planar substrate having a smooth surface or a surface with features, an elastomer disposed on the first substrate, a second planar substrate disposed on another side of the elastomer, where the second substrate has a smooth surface or features, where the first and second substrate are more rigid than the elastomer, where the first substrate, the second substrate or the elastomer has a fluid channel, where the channel is open when the first or second substrate are in a first thermal state or a first compression state, where the channel is closed or partially closed when the first or second substrate are in a second thermal state or a second compression state, where the second thermal state is a different temperature than the first thermal state, where the second compression state is a different pressure than the first compression state.

A fabrication method of a micromechanical valve includes: (1) forming a control layer according to a first weight ratio of cross linker: elastomer base; (2) forming a flow layer according to a second weight ratio of cross linker: elastomer base; (3) forming a membrane layer according to a third weight ratio of cross linker: elastomer base, where the third weight ratio is smaller than the first weight ratio, and is smaller than the second weight ratio; (4) bonding the membrane layer to the control layer to form a two-layer structure; and (5) bonding the two-layer structure to the flow layer to form the micromechanical valve.
