Abstract: A fluid handling structure for a lithographic apparatus is disclosed, the fluid handling structure successively has, at a boundary from a space configured to contain immersion fluid to a region external to the fluid handling structure: an elongate opening or a plurality of openings arranged in a first line that, in use, are directed towards a substrate and/or a substrate table configured to support the substrate; a gas knife device having an elongate aperture in a second line; and an elongate opening or a plurality of openings adjacent the gas knife device.

Abstract: A lithographic apparatus is described having a liquid supply system configured to at least partly fill a space between a projection system of the lithographic apparatus and a substrate with liquid, a substrate temperature control system configured to provide a control signal to control a substrate temperature conditioning system based on a determined temperature; and a parameter control system configured to adjust a lithographic apparatus parameter, that is other than, or in addition to, the control signal, based on temperature information of the substrate and/or substrate table or on a measure derived from the temperature information.

Abstract: An immersion lithographic apparatus is configured to subject a photosensitive layer on a substrate to a patterned beam of radiation via a liquid. The immersion lithographic apparatus includes a moveable object having a surface, a fluid handling system to control a presence of the liquid in a volume restricted by the surface, the fluid handling system, and a free surface of the liquid, the free surface extending between the surface and the fluid handling system; and a heating system configured to locally heat a portion of the liquid at a receding side of a periphery edge of the volume in contact with the surface, where the object is receding from the volume along a direction of movement of the object relative to the fluid handling system.

Abstract: A radiation source suitable for providing radiation to a lithographic apparatus generates radiation from a plasma (12) generated from a fuel (31) within an enclosure comprising a gas. The plasma generates primary fuel debris collected as a fuel layer on a debris-receiving surface ((33a), (33b)). The debris-receiving surface is heated to a temperature to maintain the fuel layer as a liquid, and to provide a reduced or zero rate of formation gas bubbles within the liquid fuel layer in order to reduce contamination of optical surfaces (14) by secondary debris arising from gas bubble eruption from the liquid fuel layer. Additionally or alternatively, the radiation source may have a debris receiving surface positioned and/or oriented such that substantially all lines normal to the debris receiving surface do not intersect an optically active surface of the radiation source.

Abstract: An immersion lithographic apparatus is disclosed that includes a fluid handling system configured to confine immersion liquid to a localized space between a final element of a projection system and a substrate and/or table and a gas supplying device configured to supply gas with a solubility in immersion liquid of greater than 5×10−3 mol/kg at 20° C. and 1 atm total pressure to an area adjacent the space.
