Abstract:
A positioning device for positioning an object within a lithographic apparatus, including a support structure for supporting the object, at least two short-stroke units, each connected to the support structure, and a long-stroke unit. In the arrangement, each of the short-stroke units includes a short-stroke actuator system configured to provide independently at least one actuation force between the short-stroke unit and the long-stroke unit, and the long-stroke unit includes a long-stroke actuator system configured to provide at least one actuation force between the long-stroke unit and a reference structure of the lithographic apparatus.
