Abstract: A substrate holder for a lithographic apparatus has a planarization layer provided on a surface thereof. The planarization layer provides a smooth surface for the formation of an electronic component such as a thin film electronic component. The planarization layer may be provided in multiple sub layers. The planarization layer may smooth over roughness caused by removal of material from a blank to form burls on the substrate holder.

Abstract: A porous member is used in a liquid removal system of an immersion lithographic projection apparatus to smooth uneven flows. A pressure differential across the porous member may be maintained at below the bubble point of the porous member so that a single-phase liquid flow is obtained. Alternatively, the porous member may be used to reduce unevenness in a two-phase flow.

Abstract: A radiation source comprising a fuel source configured to deliver fuel to a location from which the fuel emits EUV radiation. The radiation source further comprises an immobile fuel debris receiving surface provided with a plurality of grooves. The grooves have orientations which are arranged to direct the flow of liquid fuel under the influence of gravity in one or more desired directions.

Abstract: A fluid handling structure for a lithographic apparatus, the structure having: an aperture for the passage therethrough of a beam; a first part; and a second part, wherein the first and/or second part define a surface for the extraction of immersion fluid, relative movement between the first and second parts is effective to change a position of fluid flow into or out of the surface relative to the aperture, and the first or second part has at least one through-hole for the fluid flow and the other of the first or second part has at least one opening for the fluid flow, the at least one through-hole and at least one opening being in fluid communication when aligned, the relative movement allowing alignment of the at least one opening with different ones of the through-hole to change the position of the fluid flow into or out of the surface.

Abstract: An object holder for a lithographic apparatus has a main body having a surface. A plurality of burls to support an object is formed on the surface or in apertures of a thin-film stack. At least one of the burls is formed by laser-sintering. At least one of the burs formed by laser-sintering may be a repair of a damaged burl previously formed by laser-sintering or another method.
