Abstract
A lithographic apparatus includes a first space containing a plasma source and also containing a source gas which may have a high absorption of radiation at the wavelength of the projection beam of the apparatus, this gas being restricted from entering the remainder of the lithographic system by a second space containing a buffer gas having a low absorption at the wavelength of the projection beam of the apparatus. The pressure of the buffer gas is lower than or equal to that of the source gas.
