    摘要: A stage system for a lithographic apparatus is presented and includes a movable stage, and a stationary motor coil assembly including coils to interact with a magnet of the movable stage to thereby form a moving magnet motor to drive the stage. The stage system also includes a position measurement system to measure a position of the stage in a working area, the position measurement system to transfer a measurement beam along a measurement beam path which extends over a part of the motor coil assembly towards the stage. The coil assembly includes a coil assembly path between the motor coils to drive the motor, the coil assembly path extending below the measurement beam path. The stage may include a substrate stage or a reticle stage.

    摘要: A lithographic apparatus includes an illumination system that conditions a radiation beam, a patterning support holding a patterning device that patterns the radiation beam, a substrate support to hold a substrate, a projection system to project the patterned radiation beam onto the substrate, an additional support, and a flexible line assembly to transfer at least one of a current, a signal or a fluid. A first part of the line assembly extends between a base and the additional support, and a second part extends between the additional support and the patterning support or the substrate support. A first motor assembly generates a force in at least one direction, and is coupled to the one of either the patterning support or the substrate support. A second motor assembly generates a force in the at least one direction, and is coupled to the additional support. The first motor assembly includes a planar motor.
