摘要:
A liquid confinement system for use in immersion lithography is disclosed in which the meniscus of liquid between the liquid confinement system and the substrate is pinned substantially in place by a meniscus pinning feature. The meniscus pinning feature comprises a plurality of discrete outlets arranged in a polygonal shape.

摘要:
An immersion lithographic apparatus is disclosed that includes a fluid confinement system configured to confine fluid to a space between a projection system and a substrate. The fluid confinement system includes a fluid inlet to supply fluid, the fluid inlet connected to an inlet port and an outlet port. The immersion lithographic apparatus further includes a fluid supply system configured to control fluid flow through the fluid inlet by varying the flow rate of fluid provided to the inlet port and the flow rate of fluid removed from the outlet port.
摘要:
A fluid handling structure configured to supply and confine immersion liquid to a space defined between a projection system and a facing surface facing the fluid handling structure is disclosed. The fluid handling structure includes a supply passage formed therein for the passage of fluid from outside the fluid handling structure to the space, and a thermal isolator positioned adjacent the supply passage at least partly to isolate fluid in the supply passage from a thermal load induced in the fluid handling structure.

摘要:
A lithographic apparatus is disclosed having a removable adhesive film carrying a coating on at least a part of the apparatus. In an embodiment, a liquid supply system having a liquid confinement structure extending along at least part of a boundary of a space between a projection system and a substrate support is disclosed, wherein the film carrying the coating is on at least part of the liquid confinement structure.
