Lithographic apparatus and device manufacturing method
摘要
<p>Liquid is supplied to a space between the final element (PL) of the projection system and the substrate. A flow of gas towards a vacuum chamber (34) prevents the humid air from escaping to other parts of the projection apparatus. This protects intricate parts of the lithographic apparatus from being damaged by the presence of humid air.</p>
