Abstract: A method of position control of an optical component relative to a surface is disclosed. The method may include: obtaining a first signal by a first position measurement process; controlling relative movement between the optical component and the surface for a first range of motion using the first signal; obtaining a second signal by a second position measurement process different than the first position measurement process; and controlling relative movement between the optical component and the surface for a second range of motion using the second signal, the second range of motion being nearer the surface than the first range of motion.

Abstract: The invention provides a support with first and second end portions. The second end portion is on the side opposite to the first end portion in a longitudinal direction of the support. A coil spring is arranged between the first and second end portions. The coil spring comprises a first spiral member that extends between the first and second end portions in a circumferential direction of the support, and a second spiral member that extends between the first and second end portions in a circumferential direction of the support. The first and second spiral members extend in the longitudinal direction around a longitudinal axis of the support, wherein the first spiral member of the coil spring and the second spiral member of the coil spring are moveable relative to each other, and wherein the support further comprises a damper device that is attached to the first spiral member.

Abstract: A method involving providing incident radiation of a first polarization state by an optical component into an interface of an object with an external environment, wherein a surface is provided adjacent the interface and separated by a gap from the interface, detecting, from incident radiation reflected from the interface and from the surface, radiation of a second different polarization state arising from the reflection of incident radiation of the first polarization at the interface as distinct from the radiation of the first polarization state in the reflected radiation, and producing a position signal representative of a relative position between the focus of the optical component and the object.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for position control of a component relative to a surface is disclosed. The method may include calculating an estimated effect of, or derived from, Casimir force acting between the component and the surface, and compensating positioning of the component relative to the surface using the estimated effect.
