Abstract

This paper discusses a fundamental question in the characterization of XY stages: Is the orthogonality error of the stage distinguishable from a target block alignment error without explicitly measuring the target block misalignment? The conclusion reached here is that, for parallel kinematic stages this is not possible using any metrology setup or any number of measurements.
