  • A SYSTEM FOR USE IN A LITHOGRAPHIC APPARATUS
    Publication number: 20250060681
    Abstract: A system for use in a lithographic, the system includes: a substrate table; another device; and at least one deformable partition. The substrate table (for example a wafer stage) is arranged to support a substrate. The system is configurable in a first configuration such that a surface of the device faces and is adjacent to the substrate and the substrate table. The at least one deformable partition either: (a) extends partially from the substrate table towards the surface of the device when the system is in the first configuration; or (b) extends partially from the surface of the device that faces and is adjacent to the substrate and the substrate table when the system is in the first configuration towards the substrate table.

  • Gas mixing for fast temperature control of a cooling hood
    Patent number: 11681233
    Abstract: A system having a sub-system that is configured to change a thermal condition of a physical component from a set-point to a new set-point, wherein the sub-system includes: a mixer operative to receive a first conditioning fluid having a first temperature and a second conditioning fluid having a second temperature different from the first temperature, and operative to supply to the physical component a mix of the first conditioning fluid and the second conditioning fluid; and a controller configured to control the mixer in dependence on the new set-point. Also a method of operating a lithographic apparatus as well as a device manufactured using the system described herein or according to methods described herein.

  • Lithographic apparatus
    Patent number: 10747127
    Abstract: A lithographic apparatus comprising a projection system configured to project a patterned radiation beam to form an exposure area on a substrate held on a substrate table, the lithographic apparatus further comprising a cooling apparatus for cooling the substrate, wherein the cooling apparatus comprises a cooling element located above the substrate table and adjacent to the exposure area, the cooling element being configured to remove heat from the substrate.
