Zusammenfassung: | A projection objective for imaging a pattern arranged in an object surface of the projection objective into an image surface of the projection objective with a demagnified imaging scale has a plurality of optical elements which are arranged along an optical axis of the projection objective and are configured so that a defined image field curvature of the projection objective is set such that an object surface that is curved convexly with respect to the projection objective is imaged into a planar image surface. Such projection objective, with a suitable setting of the object surface curvature, avoids the disturbing effect on the image quality that would otherwise result from gravitation-dictated bending of a mask. |
