Abstract: Provided is a method of purifying a polyarylene sulfide
by washing it with a mixture
of an aprotic organic solvent and a salt prepared through reaction of a
strong acid with a weak base, followed by further washing the
polyarylene sulfide with a mixture prepared by adding a
halogenoaromatic compound having an electron-withdrawing
group to an aprotic organic solvent of a temperature of from 150°C to
300°C. The method makes it possible to reduce the impurities such as alkali metal halides
in polyarylene sulfide, thus giving thermally stable
polyarylene sulfide.

Abstract: A lithographic apparatus has an actuator to move an object with a mark (M3) with a plurality of structures (19) in rows and columns. An alignment arrangement has a light source, optics and a detector. The light source and the optics produce an alignment beam with a first spot portion (24x) extending in a first direction parallel to the columns and a second spot portion (24y) extending in a second direction parallel to the rows. The optics direct the alignment beam to the mark (M3), receive alignment radiation back from the mark (M3) and transmit the alignment radiation to the detector. The detector transmits an alignment signal to a processor that calculates a two-dimensional position of the mark (M3) based on the alignment signal.
