    摘要: A liquid supply system for an immersion lithographic projection apparatus is disclosed in which a space is defined between the projection system, a barrier member and a substrate. The barrier member is not sealed such that, during use, immersion liquid is allowed to flow out the space and between the barrier member and the substrate.

    摘要: A method for manufacturing a working template for use in imprint lithography is disclosed, which in an embodiment, involves contacting a first target region of an imprintable medium on a working template substrate with a master template to form a first imprint in the medium, the imprint defining a part of a working template pattern, separating the master template from the imprinted medium, contacting a second target region of the medium with the master template to form a second imprint in the medium, the second imprint defining a further part of the working template pattern, and separating the master template from the imprinted medium.

    摘要: The invention relates to variable focus lenses based on magneto wetting and related devices, wherein two fluids, one of which is magnetically susceptible, are in contact over a meniscus. The shape of the meniscus is controlled by means of an applied magnetic field gradient. The contact angle between the chamber wall and the meniscus is a conserved. Implementation of special shaping to the internal or external walls of the chamber, while conserving the contact angle, results in better lens shape in the variable focus lens and lower levels of lens distortion.

    摘要: For irradiating a layer (3) a radiation beam (7) is directed and focused to a spot (11) on the layer (3), relative movement of the layer (3) relative to the optical element (59) is caused so that, successively, different portions of the layer (3) are irradiated and an interspace (53) between a surface of the optical element (59) nearest to the layer (3) is maintained. Furthermore, at least a portion of the interspace (53) through which the radiation irradiates the spot (11) on the layer (3) is maintained filled with a liquid (91). By directing a gas flow (71-73) to a surface zone (74) of the layer (3), liquid (91) is reliably prevented from passing that surface zone (74), without causing damage to the layer (3). The liquid (91) is drawn away from the layer (3) in the vicinity of the surface zone (74).

    摘要: For irradiating a layer a radiation beam is directed and focussed to a spot on the layer, relative movement of the layer relative to the optical element is caused so that, successively, different portions of the layer are irradiated and an interspace between a surface of the optical element nearest to the layer is maintained. Furthermore, at least a portion of the interspace through which the radiation irradiates the spot on the layer is maintained filled with a liquid, the liquid being supplied via a supply conduit and flowing out of an outflow opening through a total projected cross-sectional passage area in a plane parallel to the layer. The outflow opening or a plurality of the outflow openings are positioned such that, seen in a direction perpendicular to the layer, the total cross-sectional area has a centre in the portion of the interspace through which the radiation irradiates the spot.
