    摘要: A vibration control apparatus suppresses a vibration of a structure which is vibrated. The vibration control apparatus includes: a vibration isolation apparatus that supports the structure and suppresses a transmission of a vibration to the structure, the vibration having an amplitude equal to or less than a first amplitude in a predetermined direction; and a damping apparatus that damps a vibration of the structure vibrating in the predetermined vibration direction with a second amplitude larger than the first amplitude, to thereby reduce the vibration to equal to or less than the first amplitude.

    摘要: A light source apparatus is equipped with a discharge lamp, which has a glass tube that forms a light emitting part and a base member that is coupled thereto, and a mounting apparatus that holds the discharge lamp via the base member. Therein, the base member has a flange part that contacts positioning plate of the mounting apparatus, and a fixed part that is urged with a pressing force that presses the flange part to the positioning plate. Furthermore, the mounting apparatus has a fixing arm that urges the fixed part by a compression coil spring.

    摘要: A substrate is held by adsorption by a substrate holding frame that is formed into a frame shape and is lightweight, and the substrate holding frame is driven along a horizontal plane by a drive unit that includes a linear motor. Below the substrate holding frame, a plurality of air levitation units are placed that support by levitation the substrate in a noncontact manner such that the substrate is substantially horizontal, by jetting air to the lower surface of the substrate. Since the plurality of air levitation units cover a movement range of the substrate holding frame, the drive unit can guide the substrate holding frame (substrate) along the horizontal plane at high speed and with high precision.

    摘要: A projection exposure apparatus includes off-axis type plate alignment systems which make it possible to reduce alignment time and thereby increase throughput. Exposure of large photosensitive plates is made possible without increasing the length of the plate stage stroke. Multiple fiducial mark members including fiducial mark members in different positions on a plate stage are utilized. Multiple off-axis type plate alignment systems are used to observe the multiple fiducial marks.

    摘要: A pair of reference plates is so arranged as to have a predetermined positional relationship on a carriage that integrally holds a mask and a photosensitive substrate such that the mask and the photosensitive substrate oppose each other on two sides of a projecting optical system. By periodically detecting the positional relationship between the reference plates in the optical axis direction, a variation with time occurring in the detection characteristics of position detecting devices is detected. Both stable image formation characteristics and a high throughput are realized by correcting a driving signal to be supplied to a driving device in accordance with the detected variation.

    摘要: In an exposure apparatus and method, a mask and a substrate are scanned in synchronism with each other so that the pattern of the mask may be transferred onto the substrate through a projection optical system. First beams of light are irradiated to least two locations on the mask spaced apart in a direction intersecting the scanning direction of the mask. The reflected light thereof is received, and the positions of the points on the mask to which the beam of light has been irradiated are detected in the direction of the optical axis of the projection optical system. In addition, second beams of light are irradiated to at least two locations on the substrate spaced apart in the scanning direction, and the reflected light thereof is received. The positions of the points on the substrate to which the second beam of light has been irradiated are also detected in the direction of the optical axis of the projection optical system are detected. The posture of at least one of the mask and the substrate is adjusted on the basis of the positions detected with the first and second beams.
