  • Publication number: 20150343679
    Abstract: The present invention provides an imprint apparatus that forms an imprint material supplied on a shot region of a substrate by using a mold, comprising a detection unit configured to detect each mark provided to the shot region and each mark provided to the mold, and a control unit configured to perform alignment between the mold and the substrate based on a detection result by the detection unit, wherein the control unit obtains a predicted value of a position of a mark provided to the shot region by using information about deformation of the shot region, determines, as an abnormal mark, a mark for which a difference between the detection result and the predicted value does not fall within an allowable range and performs the alignment without using the detection result for the abnormal mark.

  • Patent number: 8938222
    Abstract: An event notification device includes a wireless communication unit, an event occurrence information acquiring unit, an enabled-notice information acquiring unit, a notice setting unit, and an event occurrence notification unit. The wireless communication unit transmits and receives information on an online service from multiple external devices. The event occurrence information acquiring unit acquires an event occurrence notice via the wireless communication unit from the external devices. The enabled-notice information acquiring unit acquires enabled-notice information on the event occurrence notice via the wireless communication unit. The notice setting unit requests one external device to transmit the event occurrence notice and requests the other external devices not to transmit the event occurrence notice if the multiple external devices can individually transmit the same event occurrence notice.
