    摘要: A maskless lithography system has a patterning array assembly formed by a plurality of patterning arrays, each patterning array having a substrate. Each patterning array has a plurality of individually controllable elements to endow an incoming radiation beam with a patterned cross-section. To reduce the global unflatness of the patterning array assembly that is oriented in a first plane, the position of at least one substrate of a patterning array is adjusted to a second orientation. Reduction of the global unflatness of the patterning array assembly reduces a telecentricity error without introducing additional error into the maskless lithography system.

    摘要: A lithographic apparatus, a device manufacturing method, and a projection element for use in a lithographic apparatus are disclosed. The lithographic apparatus has a radiation system for providing a pulsed beam of radiation, a patterning device for imparting the beam with a pattern to form a patterned radiation beam, and a projection system having a projection element for projecting the patterned beam onto a target portion of a substrate. The apparatus further comprises an actuator for moving the projection element for shifting the patterned beam that is projected onto the substrate during at least one pulse of the radiation system. This can be done to compensate for a positional error between a substrate table holding the substrate and an aerial image of the projection system. The positional error could occur due to mechanical vibrations in the frame system of the lithographic apparatus.

    摘要: An assembly includes a first element having a predetermined functionality that is to be positioned with respect to a second element. The elements are arranged in a spaced relationship on a support frame. The support frame is provided with an interface surface formed on or in the support frame for receiving the first element. The interface surface determines the position of the first element with respect to the second element, and is configured in accordance with the predetermined functionality so that the first element is positionable with respect to the second element with at least three degrees of freedom.

    摘要: A lithographic apparatus includes an illumination system for providing a beam of radiation, and a support structure for supporting a patterning device. The patterning device serves to impart the projection beam with a pattern in its cross-section. The apparatus also includes a substrate table for holding a substrate, and a projection system for projecting the patterned beam onto a target portion of the substrate. At least one of the patterning device, or the projection system, and the illumination system includes a reflector assembly that includes a reflector substrate with a reflective surface for reflecting part of incident radiation, and a heat exchanger system that is constructed and arranged to exchange heat with the reflector substrate. The heat exchanger system includes a thermally active element that is disposed in a recess of the reflector substrate at a side of the reflector substrate that is different from the reflective surface.
