Abstract: A lithographic apparatus comprises: an illumination system; a support structure; a substrate table; a projection system and a heating system. The illumination system is configured to condition a radiation beam. The support structure is constructed to support a reticle and pellicle assembly for receipt of the radiation beam conditioned by the illumination system. The substrate table is constructed to support a substrate. The projection system is configured to receive the radiation beam from the reticle - pellicle assembly and to project it onto the substrate. The heating system is operable to heat a pellicle of the reticle - pellicle assembly supported by the support structure. A method for using a reticle - pellicle assembly comprises: illuminating the reticle - pellicle assembly with a radiation beam so as to form a patterned image on a substrate; and heating the pellicle of the reticle - pellicle assembly using a separate heat source.

Abstract: Methods of forming a patterned layer of material are disclosed. In one arrangement, a substrate having a layered structure is provided. The layered structure comprises a base layer, a support layer, and a thermally insulating layer between the base layer and the support layer. The support layer comprises a plurality of sub-units that are thermally insulated from each other. A selected portion of the support layer is selectively irradiated during a pattern-forming process. The irradiation locally drives the pattern-forming process to form a layer of material in a pattern defined by the selected portion.

Abstract: Methods of performing metrology are disclosed. In one arrangement a substrate is provided that has a layer formed on the substrate. The layer comprises a two-dimensional material. A target portion of the layer is illuminated with a beam of radiation and a distribution of radiation in a pupil plane is detected to obtain measurement data. The measurement data is processed to obtain metrology information about the target portion of the layer. The illuminating, detecting and processing are performed for plural different target portions of the layer to obtain metrology information for the plural target portions of the layer.
