摘要:
A lithographic apparatus having a table including a target and/or a sensor and a liquid displacing device to displace liquid from the target and/or sensor using a localized gas flow is disclosed. The liquid displacement device may be positioned at various positions, e.g. mounted to a liquid handling device at an exposure station, adjacent or in a transfer path between the exposure station and a measurement station, at a load/unload station or adjacent a sensor.
摘要:
An immersion lithographic apparatus is described with a drain configured to remove liquid from a gap between an edge of the substrate and the substrate table on which the substrate is supported. The drain is provided with a means to provide liquid to the drain irrespective of the position of the substrate table and/or a means to saturate gas within the drain. Those measures reduce the variations in heat load due to evaporation of liquid in the drain.

摘要:
A method of operating a fluid confinement system of an immersion lithographic apparatus is disclosed. The performance of the liquid confinement system is measured in several different ways. On the basis of the result of the measurement of performance, a signal indicating, for example, that a remedial action may need to be taken is generated.
