Abstract
Provided is a stage apparatus that includes a first movable unit; a linear motor that includes a stator coil array arranged over a stroke range in a predetermined direction of the first movable unit and a mover magnet fixed to the first movable unit; a second movable unit that is arranged to face the first movable unit via a space and relatively moves with respect to the first movable unit in the predetermined direction; and a switch unit that forms a closed circuit including coils in the stator coil array and a resistance during operation of a dynamic brake, wherein the resistance value of a first coil located at a center region of the stroke range in the stator coil array is larger than that of a second coil located toward an end side of the stroke range rather than the center region in the stator coil array.
