    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an assembly having a sensor for determining at least one of tilt and height of a surface of a substrate by a lithographic projection apparatus. SOLUTION: The substrate (W; 11) is movable along at least one path substantially parallel to the surface of the substrate with respect to the sensor. The lithographic projection apparatus (1) has an exposure scanning direction (y). The assembly is constructed to continuously move the substrate along at least one path with respect to the sensor and to provide measured data concerning at least one of the data of the tilt and height along at least the one path. The assembly has a memory (10) for storing the measurement data so that the lithographic projection apparatus uses the substrate above thereafter during exposure. At least a portion of the at least one path of the substrate has an angle to the exposure scanning direction. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT

    Abstract: The present invention discloses a lithographic apparatus a lithographic apparatus with an improved focus control system. The lithographic apparatus includes an illumination system (IL) configured to provide a beam of radiation (PB), a first support structure (MT) configured to support a patterning device (MA) that imparts the beam of radiation with a desired pattern in its cross-section, a second support structure (WT) that includes a substrate holder for holding a substrate (W), a projection system (PL) configured to project the patterned beam of radiation onto a target portion (C) on a surface of the substrate, and a servo unit (PW) configured to position the substrate holder. The apparatus further includes a sensor unit (LS) configured to determine a distance of at least one location point on the surface of the substrate relative to a reference plane (REF), a memory unit configured to store surface information of the substrate based on respective distances of corresponding the at least one location point on the substrate surface, and a calculating unit configured to determine a feed-forward set-point signal based on the stored surface information, such that the feed-forward set-point signal is forwardly fed to the servo unit in order to position the substrate holder.
