Abstract: A pellicle membrane for a lithographic apparatus, the membrane including uncapped carbon nanotubes. A method of regenerating a pellicle membrane, the method including decomposing a precursor compound and depositing at least some of the products of decomposition onto the pellicle membrane. A method of reducing the etch rate of a pellicle membrane, the method including providing an electric field in the region of the pellicle membrane to redirect ions from the pellicle, or heating elements to desorb radicals from the pellicle, preferably wherein the pellicle membrane is a carbon nanotube pellicle membrane. An assembly for a lithographic apparatus, the assembly including a biased electrode near or including the pellicle membrane or heating means for the pellicle membrane.

Abstract: A membrane cleaning apparatus for removing particles from a membrane, the apparatus including a membrane support and an electric field generating mechanism. The membrane support is for supporting the membrane. The electric field generating mechanism is for generating an electric field in the vicinity of the membrane when supported by the membrane support. The electric field generating mechanism may include: one or more collector electrodes; and a mechanism for applying a voltage across a membrane supported by the membrane support and the or each of the one or more collector electrodes.

Abstract: A substrate support for supporting a substrate. The substrate support comprises a main body, a clamping device and a dither device. The main body comprises a support surface for supporting the substrate. The clamping device is arranged to provide the clamping force to clamp the substrate on the support surface. The dither device is configured to dither the clamping force. The dither device may be configured to dither the clamping force while the substrate W is being loaded onto the support surface.
