MOVABLE SUPPORT AND LITHOGRAPHIC APPARATUS

摘要

The present invention relates to a movable support (1) configured to support an object, comprising: a support plane (2) to support the object, an actuator assembly to move the movable support in a first direction and in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction extend in a plane parallel to the support plane, wherein the actuator assembly comprises: a first actuator (3) configured to exert a first actuation force (F1) in a first actuation direction (A1), said first actuation direction being parallel to the support plane, a second actuator (4) configured to exert a second actuation force (F2) in a second actuation direction (A2), said second actuation direction being parallel to the support plane, wherein the first actuation direction and the second actuation direction are arranged non-parallel and non-perpendicular with respect to each other.
