Definition of Alignment mark

Integrated Circuit Terminology
Alignment Mark
mark or target on a reticle or mask that is used to achieve alignment. For example, a wafer might have a cross printed on it from a previous layer, and a  reticle might have a cross designed to fit inside the cross already on the  wafer. When the smaller cross fits within the larger cross, the  reticle is aligned to the wafer.
