Electromagnetic actuator and exposure apparatus including the same

摘要

An electromagnetic actuator has a permanent magnet and an armature coil that performs relative movement with respect to the permanent magnet. A material having heat conduction anisotropy surrounds a surface of the armature coil and a heat radiating member radiates heat generated by the armature coil. The heat conduction anisotropic material is oriented to guide the heat generated from the armature coil to the heat radiating member. The actuator may be used in one or more groups of semiconductor substrate exposure apparatuses in a manufacturing factory that performs plural processes using the group of manufacturing apparatuses.
