    摘要: A lithographic projection apparatus is presented, which includes a housing, which comprises therein a first exposure system that has at least one movable part (e.g. a movable first substrate holder or a movable second substrate holder in a twin stage apparatus). The apparatus also includes a position disturbance correction system for correcting a position of the first substrate holder with respect to the patterned projection beam due to the influence of gas pressure differences or gas movements, caused by movements of the movable part. A related device manufacturing method is also presented in which, during the exposure of a first substrate, the position thereof is corrected by means of position disturbance correction system.

    摘要: To increase a measurement range of a measurement system taking measurement samples of an object moving with respect to said measurement system, the measurement system is configured to take measurement samples at different sample positions while the object accelerates with respect to the measurement system. In particular, a measurement timing for taking samples is determined corresponding to a selected acceleration and velocity of the object as a function of time with respect to the measurement system.

    摘要: A lithographic apparatus includes an illumination system to condition a radiation beam. A patterning support holds a patterning device that imparts the radiation beam with a pattern to form a patterned radiation beam. A substrate support holds a substrate. A projection system projects the patterned radiation beam onto the substrate. A positioning system positions the patterning support and the substrate support. The positioning system has a motor with a stator and a mover coupled to a support, and an associated motor control system with a controller providing an output for controlling currents applied to the motor. The motor control system determines a controller output required to compensate for a weight of mover and associated support, determines a deviation of this output from an output required to compensate the gravity force acting on the mover and associated support, and corrects the currents applied to the motor based on the deviation.
