Patent number: 9939740Abstract: A lithographic apparatus including a barrier system and a device manufacturing method using such a lithographic apparatus. The barrier system is used to maintain a protected volume of gas within a barrier. The protected volume may be maintained when different components of the lithographic apparatus move relative to each other. The barrier system may be used in different locations within the lithographic apparatus. The geometry of the barrier affects how efficiently the protected volume is maintained, especially at high speeds. The geometry reduces the amount of ambient gas entering the protected volume from outside the barrier.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2015Date of Patent: April 10, 2018Assignee: ASML NETHERLANDS B.V.Inventors: Günes Nakiboglu, Martijn Van Baren, Frank Johannes Jacobus Van Boxtel, Koen Cuypers, Jeroen Gerard Gosen, Laurentius Johannes Adrianus Van Bokhoven

Publication number: 20070261562Abstract: A coffee maker comprises a pump for pressurizing water, a pump tube connected to an outlet side of the pump, and a brewing chamber which is adapted to accommodate a coffee pad. During operation of the coffee maker, the water is heated and pressed through a coffee pad in order to obtain coffee. In order for the performance of the coffee maker to be stable, it is important that a predetermined pressure is obtained in the brewing chamber. The stability of the performance is found to be dependent on a ratio between a length of the pump tube and a wavelength of a wave which is caused by the pump in the pump tube during operation. If said ratio is within a range of 0.3 to 0.7±0.5N, wherein N is an integer, the performance is stable. However, if the ratio is outside of this range, the performance is unstable.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 3, 2005Publication date: November 15, 2007Applicant: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: Martijn Van Baren, Joeke Noordhuis, David Johannus Huntink, Peter Bouma, Hendrik Smitt
