Abstract:
An immersion lithography apparatus has a controller configured to control a substrate table to move along an exposure route including in order: an entry motion in which the substrate moves from an off-substrate position at which the immersion space does not overlap the substrate to an on-substrate position at which the immersion space at least partially overlaps the substrate, a transfer motion in which the substrate table changes speed and/or direction and moves for at least a transfer time after the substrate moves to the on-substrate position, and an expose motion in which the substrate is scanned and the patterned beam is projected onto the substrate, wherein throughout the transfer motion at least a part of the immersion space overlaps the substrate and wherein the patterned beam is not projected onto the substrate during the entry motion and the transfer motion.

Claim (Index 34):
The computer-readable medium according to  claim 27 , wherein the modified routing instructions specify the exposure route, the exposure route comprising in order:\n an entry motion in which the substrate moves from an off-substrate position at which the immersion space does not overlap the substrate to an on-substrate position at which the immersion space at least partially overlaps the substrate, a transfer motion, that is the next motion after the entry motion, in which the substrate table changes speed and/or direction and moves for at least a certain transfer time after the substrate moves to the on-substrate position, and an expose motion, that is the next motion after the transfer motion, in which the substrate is scanned and the patterned beam is projected onto the substrate, wherein the patterned beam is not projected onto the substrate during the entry motion and the transfer motion.
