    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a lithographic device which is so improved that damage due to especially collision and leakage, etc. in an immersion device is suppressed, related to an immersion lithographic projector. SOLUTION: This lithographic projector includes a calculator which calculates numerical quantities relating to a void dimension between a fluid supply system and a substrate table for holding a substrate based on numerical quantities relating to a position of the substrate table, and that relating to a position of the fluid supply system to prevent the collision between the fluid supply system and the substrate table for holding the substrate. The projector further comprises a damage suppressing system which is so constituted as to generate a warning signal when the numerical quantities relating to the dimension goes beyond a predetermined safety level.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and a method that utilize efficient patterning means. SOLUTION: The present invention includes a lithographic apparatus and a device manufacturing method that uses a patterning apparatus that increases the number of individually controllable elements to be simultaneously programmed, in order to increase the update speed of an array of the individually controllable elements. Thus, the number of high-speed analog inputs required for the array is decreased, the complexity of the array is reduced, and the maximum update speed of the array is increased. Furthermore, the number of elements in the array can be increased easily. The patterning apparatus is divided into a plurality of cell groups, and the lithographic apparatus may include a plurality of supply channels. Each supply channel is disposed such that it supplies a voltage signal to each cell that corresponds to the cell group. Thus, the required number of inputs to the patterning apparatus for individually addressing each cell is reduced. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a safety system for preventing a collision of a support with another parts, for a lithographic apparatus which has a stationary magnet motor for driving the support such as a substrate support or a patterning device support. SOLUTION: A measurement system for measuring the position of the support. The measurement system measures a magnetic field strength of an alternating magnetic field generated by a magnet assembly of the stationary magnet motor, and/or measures generation of eddy currents in a metallic layer shielding the magnet assembly in combination with an inductance measurement of an electromagnet generating the alternating magnetic field causing the eddy currents, and/or measures light using an optical position sensitive sensor such as a CCD metric or linear photodiode positioned in a light plane emitted by an emitter.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a level sensor which is used to measure the height of a substrate in a lithographic projection device, can be also used for a single-stage immersion lithographic device, has no process dependency, is of high reaction rate, and is of a kind different from a conventional type. SOLUTION: The level sensor includes a transmitter 10 and a receiver 11. The transmitter is configured to transmit a pressure wave 100 to a predetermined position on the surface of a substrate between the substrate W and a projection system PS, and to allow the substrate W to reflect at least a part of the pressure wave. The receiver receives at least a part of the reflected wave. The level sensor is configured to determine the height of the surface in the substrate W based on the pressure wave transmitted and received. The level sensor can be used for immersion process, quickly works and has a scarce process dependency, because the pressure wave is used. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
