A lithographic apparatus comprising: an illumination system (IL) configured to condition a radiation beam (PB); a support (MT) constructed to support a patterning device (MA), the patterning device being capable of imparting the radiation beam with a pattern in its cross-section to form a patterned radiation beam; a substrate table (WT) constructed to hold a substrate (W); a projection system (PL) configured to project the patterned radiation beam onto a target portion of the substrate; a liquid supply system (130) configured to at least partly fill a space (25) between a final element of said projection system and said substrate with liquid; a seal member (12) arranged substantially to contain said liquid within said space between said final element of the projection system and said substrate; and elements (30,50,60,120,140) to control and/or compensate for evaporation of immersion liquid from said substrate. |
