Zusammenfassung: | The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for exposing a sample. The apparatus comprises an exposing unit for exposing said sample to electromagnetic radiation or particles having energy, and a substrate holding device for holding said sample at least during said exposing. The exposing unit comprises a component for manipulating and/or blocking at least part of the electromagnetic radiation or charged particles. The component comprises a cooling arrangement for substantially maintaining the component at a first temperature. The substrate holding device comprises a temperature stabilizing arrangement which is arranged to substantially stabilize the temperature of a sample arranged on said substrate holding device. The temperature stabilizing arrangement comprises a phase change material having a phase change at a second temperature. The cooling arrangement comprises a control device which is configured to regulate the first temperature to be near or equal to the second temperature. |
