SUBSTRATE SUPPORT AND LITHOGRAPHIC PROCESS

摘要

Substrate support and lithographic process A substrate support constructed to support a substrate for immersion lithographic processing is disclosed. The substrate support has a central part and a peripheral part, the peripheral part comprising an extraction duct configured to extract a liquid from a top surface of the substrate support, the extraction duct connected to an exit duct configured to duct the liquid away from the substrate support. The substrate support further includes a thermal decoupler, arranged in the peripheral part, configured to arranged to decrease heat transport between the central part and the peripheral part.
