Patent number: 10429748Abstract: An apparatus, such as a lithographic apparatus, has a metrology frame that has a reference frame mounted thereon that includes a reference surface. A gas gauge is movable relative to the reference frame, metrology frame, and a measured surface. A reference nozzle in the gas gauge provides gas to the reference surface and a measurement nozzle provides gas to the measured surface. A microelectromechanical (MEM) sensor may be used with the gas gauge to sense a difference in backpressure from each of the reference nozzle and the measurement nozzle. Optionally, multiple gas gauges are positioned in an array, which may extend in a direction that is substantially parallel to a plane of the measured surface. The gauges may be fluidly connected to a reference nozzle of the gas gauge. A channel may distribute gas across the array.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2016Date of Patent: October 1, 2019Assignees: ASML Holding N.V., ASML Netherlands B.V.Inventors: Joseph Harry Lyons, Martinus Cornelis Reijnen, Erik Johan Arlemark, Nicolae Marian Ungureanu, James Hamilton Walsh

Publication number: 20150331338Abstract: Disclosed is a substrate support for an apparatus of the type which projects a beam of EUV radiation onto a target portion of a substrate (400). The substrate support comprises a substrate table constructed to hold the substrate, a support block (420) for supporting the substrate table, and a cover plate (450?) disposed around the substrate table. The top surface of the cover plate and the top surface of a substrate mounted on the substrate table are all substantially at the same level. At least one sensor unit (430) is located on the substrate support and its top surface is also at the same level as that of the cover plate and substrate. Also disclosed is an EUV lithographic apparatus comprising such a substrate support.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 26, 2013Publication date: November 19, 2015Applicant: ASML NETHERLANDS B.V.Inventors: Erik Johan ARLEMARK, Andrianus Hendrik KOEVOETS, Raymond Wilhelmus Louis LAFARRE, Nicolaas TEN KATE, Carlo Cornelis Maria LUIJTEN, Han-Kwang NIENHUYS
