Zusammenfassung:A lithographic projection apparatus comprising: a radiation system for providing a projection beam of radiation; a support structure for supporting patterning means, the patterning means serving to pattern the projection beam according to a desired pattern; a substrate holder (2) for holding a substrate (1) said substrate holder (2) provided with means to provide a holding force for pressing the substrate against the substrate holder; releasing means (4) for ejecting said substrate (1) from said holder (2) against said holding force; and a projection system for projecting the patterned beam onto a target portion of the substrate. According to the invention, the lithographic projection apparatus comprises a controller (5) for controlling said releasing means (4) so as to release said substrate (1) from said holder (2) with a release force that is reduced preceding to final release.
