    摘要: A stage system includes an object table constructed to hold an object, a short stroke actuator element constructed to displace the object table over a first range of movement, and a long stroke actuator element constructed to displace the short stroke actuator element over a second range of movement which is larger than the first range of movement. The stage system further includes a pneumatic compensation device including: a sensor arranged to measure a quantity representative of a pneumatic disturbance force on the short stroke actuator element, an actuator arranged to provide a compensating force to at least partly compensate the pneumatic disturbance, and a controller. The sensor is connected to a controller input of the controller, the actuator is connected to a controller output of the controller, the controller being arranged to drive the actuator in response to a signal received from the sensor.

    摘要: A control system to control a position parameter of a stage in a lithographic apparatus includes a stage controller to control a position parameter of the stage in at least a first direction. The control system includes a disturbance torque estimator to estimate a disturbance torque on the stage, the disturbance torque about an axis extending in a second direction, the second direction being substantially perpendicular to the first direction. The control system includes a correction signal calculator, the correction signal calculator provided with the estimated disturbance torque and a signal representative of a position of the stage in a third direction, the third direction being substantially perpendicular to the first and second directions. The correction signal calculator determines a feedforward correction signal to correct a position error of the stage in the first direction due to the disturbance torque, the feedforward correction signal to be fed to the stage.
