    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To limit movement of an immersion liquid in a gap between a liquid immersion system structure and a projection system and reduce the amount of the immersion liquid flowing out from an immersion system through the gap. SOLUTION: A lithographic apparatus includes the projection system configured to project a patterned radiation beam on a target part on a substrate. The lithographic apparatus also includes a barrier member surrounding space between the projection system and the substrate in use so as to define a reservoir for liquid partly together with the projection system. An outer surface in the radial direction of the barrier member facing a part of the projection system and a part of an outer surface in the radial direction of the projection system facing the barrier member each include a liquid repellent outer surface. The liquid repellent outer surface of the barrier member and/or the part of the liquid repellent outer surface of the projection system include an inner rim which defines the reservoir partly.
