摘要: An extraction body for a support apparatus of a lithographic apparatus. The support apparatus is configured to support an object. The extraction body is formed with an opening at a surface thereof. The opening extends within the extraction body forming a first passageway. The first passageway is configured to fluidly communicate an extraction channel in the extraction body to liquid between the surface and the object. A first pressure in the extraction channel is less than ambient pressure. At least a part of the first passageway is sized and dimensioned such that when the liquid enters the first passageway via the opening, a second pressure in the first passageway associated with surface tension of the liquid is lower than the first pressure such that at least a portion of the liquid is retained in the first passageway.

摘要: A substrate table to support a substrate, the substrate table including a main body, burls extending from the main body and having first upper ends that define a support surface to support the substrate, and support pins having second upper ends. The support pins are movable between a retracted position and an extended position. The support pins are arranged to support the substrate in the extended position. The support pins are arranged to be switched to a first stiffness mode and a second stiffness mode. In the first stiffness mode, the support pins have a first stiffness in a direction parallel to the support surface. In the second stiffness mode, the support pins have a second stiffness in the direction parallel to the support surface. The first stiffness is different from the second stiffness.

摘要: A support table for a lithographic apparatus, a method of loading a substrate, a lithographic apparatus and a method for manufacturing a device using a lithographic apparatus. In one arrangement, a support table is configured to support a substrate. The support table has a base surface. The base surface faces a surface of the substrate when the substrate is supported by the support table. One or more gas cushion members are provided above the base surface. Each of the gas cushion members includes a recess. The recess is shaped and configured such that a lowering of the substrate into a position on the support table at which the substrate is supported by the support table causes a localised build-up of pressure within the recess. The localized build-up of pressure provides a localised gas cushioning effect during the lowering of the substrate.

摘要: A support table, a method of loading a substrate, a lithographic apparatus and a method of manufacturing a device using a lithographic apparatus are disclosed. In one arrangement, a support table is configured to support a substrate. The support table has a base surface. The base surface faces a bottom surface of the substrate when the substrate is supported by the support table. One or more gas cushion members are provided above the base surface. Each of the gas cushion members includes a recess. The recess is shaped and configured such that a lowering of the substrate into a position on the support table at which the substrate is supported by the support table causes a localized build-up of pressure within the recess. The localized build-up of pressure provides a localized gas cushioning effect during the lowering of the substrate.
