A liquid immersion type projection optical system that can stably prevent the outflow of immersion liquid into inside of an optical system and can maintain good imaging performance. In the projection optical system of the present invention, an optical path between a light transmitting member (Lp) disposed closest to a second surface (W) side and the second surface is filled with a liquid (Lm1) having a refractive index greater than 1.1, and a light shielding film (36) for shielding the passing of light is formed on the side surfaces (41, 42) of the light transmitting member. When D is a space between the second surface and the light shielding film, Θ is a maximum incident angle of an image forming beam which reaches the second surface, and Ym is a maximum image height on the second surface, the condition of 0.25

摘要:
An intake system for an internal combustion engine includes an intake manifold adapted to be attached to a side wall of the engine, and an air cleaner for supplying intake air to the intake manifold. The air cleaner is disposed opposite to the side wall of the engine while interposing therebetween the intake manifold. The air cleaner has an air cleaner main body joined with the intake manifold to constitute a single unit. The air cleaner main body is made of a material lower in the strength than a material which the intake manifold is made of.

An illuminating optical apparatus comprises a light source providing a light beam; a rotationally symmetrical mirror having an aperture of a predetermined shape; a collimating optical system for converting the light beam, coming from the light source and condensed by the rotationally symmetrical mirror, into a substantially parallel light beam; a multiple light source forming device for forming plural secondary light sources by said substantially parallel light beam; and a condenser optical system for condensing the light beam from the multiple light source forming device, thereby uniformly illuminating an object of illumination. The collimating optical system is adapted to form an image of the reflecting surface of the rotationally symmetrical mirror on a predetermined plane of the multiple light source forming device.

A projection exposure apparatus is provided with a light source generating pulsed light, a rotary deflecting prism for deviating the light beam from the light source, fly's eye lenses for forming surface light sources in succession by thus deviated light beam, and a condenser lens for condensing the light from the fly's eye lens for illuminating the reticle. The pulsed light from the light source is alternately introduced into the fly's eye lenses by every pulse or by every plural number of pulses.

In an evaluation device an analyzer is rotated so that the azimuth of the transmission axis of the analyzer has an inclination angle of 90 degrees±3 degrees with respect to the transmission axis of a polarizer. An imaging camera captures a regularly reflected image of a wafer under each condition, and an image processing unit evaluates the shape of a repeating pattern and detects dose defects and focus defects on the basis of the two images of the wafer captured by the imaging camera.
