    摘要: A radiation source is disclosed that includes an anode and a cathode that are configured and arranged to create a discharge in a substance in a discharge space between the anode and the cathode and to form a plasma so as to generate electromagnetic radiation, the anode and the cathode being rotatably mounted around an axis of rotation, the cathode being arranged to hold a liquid metal. The radiation source further includes an activation source arranged to direct an energy beam onto the liquid metal so as to vaporize part of the liquid metal and a liquid metal provider arranged to supply additional liquid metal so as to compensate for the vaporized part of the liquid metal.

    摘要: A lithographic apparatus is disclosed. The lithographic apparatus includes an illumination system that provides a beam of radiation, and a support structure that supports a patterning structure. The patterning structure is configured to impart the beam of radiation with a pattern in its cross-section. The apparatus also includes a substrate support that supports a substrate, and a projection system that projects the patterned beam onto a target portion of the substrate. The illumination system includes a radiation-production system that produces extreme ultra-violet radiation, and a radiation-collection system that collects extreme ultra-violet radiation. Particles that are produced as a by-product of extreme ultra-violet radiation production move substantially in a particle-movement direction. The radiation-collection system is arranged to collect extreme ultra-violet radiation which radiates in a collection-direction, which is substantially different from the particle-movement direction.
