More Information
Summary:A microlithographic arrangement, for example using light in the extreme UV range, includes a supporting structure for supporting an optical unit, the mass of which can be 4 t to 14 t. The supporting structure includes a number of separate supporting units for supporting the optical unit. Each of the supporting units includes an air bearing unit by way of which a supporting force which counteracts the weight of the optical unit can be generated. The number of supporting units is at least four, at least two of the supporting units being coupled via a coupling device to form a supporting unit pair in such a way that the coupling device counteracts a deviation from a predeterminable ratio of the supporting forces of the two supporting units of the supporting unit pair.
