摘要:
An optical element (1) made of a material that is transparent to wavelengths in the UV region, which optical element (1) includes an oleophobic coating (6, 7) outside of its optically free diameter whose disperse component of the surface energy is preferably 25 mN/m or less, particularly preferably 20 mN/m or less, in particular 15 mN/m or less. In addition or as an alternative, the optical element (1) within its optically free diameter comprises an oleophilic coating (9b, 9c) that is transparent to wavelengths in the UV region, with the disperse component of the surface energy of this coating preferably being more than 25 mN/m, particularly preferably more than 30 mN/m, in particular more than 40 mN/m. The optical element may be provided in an arrangement in which it dips at least partially into an organic liquid.

The disclosure relates to a microlithographic projection exposure apparatus, such as are used for the production of large-scale integrated electrical circuits and other microstructured components. The disclosure relates in particular to coatings of optical elements in order to increase or reduce the reflectivity.
摘要:
An optical arrangement for immersion lithography, having at least one component (1) to which a hydrophobic coating (6, 7) is applied, the hydrophobic coating (6, 7) being exposed to UV radiation during operation of a projection lens, and the at least one component (1) being wetted at least in part by an immersion fluid during operation of the projection lens. The hydrophobic coating (6, 7) includes at least one UV-resistant layer (6) that absorbs and/or reflects UV radiation at a wavelength of less than 260 nm.

摘要:
An optical arrangement for use in an optical imaging process includes an optical element, an immersion zone and a liquid repelling device. During the optical imaging process, the immersion zone is located adjacent to the optical element and is filled with an immersion liquid. The optical element has a first surface region and a second surface region. During the optical imaging process, the first surface region is wetted by the immersion liquid. At least temporarily during the optical imaging process, the liquid repelling device generates an electrical field in the region of the second surface. The electrical field being is adapted to cause a repellent force on parts of the immersion liquid which are responsive to the electrical field and inadvertently contact the second surface region. The repellent force has a direction to drive away the parts of the immersion liquid from the second surface region.

In a method for operating a converter (1), in which the converter (1) is mounted in a carrying ring (3) by means of carrying journals (2), a gear mechanism (4) is mounted in a floating manner on the carrying journals (2), the converter (1) is configured, as a result, such that it can tilt about its horizontal axis and the gear mechanism (4) is connected rigidly to a pedestal (6) by a torque support (5), the torque support (5) connects the gear mechanism (4) to the pedestal (6) during the tilting operation of the converter (1), and the torque support (5) is released from the pedestal (6) or from the gear mechanism (4) or from both during operation of the converter (1).
摘要:
A wafer chuck (1b) having a substrate (2) and having, applied to the substrate (2), an electrically conductive coating (8) for fixing a wafer (6) by electrostatic attraction and preferably having a reflective coating (10) applied to the substrate (2). The coating (8; 10) has at least a first layer (3; 11) under compressive stress and at least a second layer (7; 12) under tensile stress for compensating for the compressive stress of the first layer (3; 11) in order to keep deformation of the wafer chuck (1b) by the coating (8, 10) as low as possible.
