    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a seal member or a barrier member that reduces a turbulent flow and an overflow of immersion liquid in a liquid supply system for an immersion lithographic apparatus.
    SOLUTION: The immersion liquid is supplied into a seal member 12 through an inlet 128. The immersion liquid is pushed into orifices 121 that permit fluid communication between a first chamber 120 and a second chamber 122, causing a first pressure drop in the immersion liquid. The orifices 121 are individual holes prepared in a plate 123 separating the chambers 120 and 122, and the orifices 121 disperse a flow in a tangential direction over a plate 126 separating the chamber 122 from a space, ensuring a uniform flow over the width of the array of orifices 124. The orifices 124 are provided as a (regular) two-dimensional array in the plate 126 of the seal member 12. Thus uniform and parallel flows are generated in the space.
