The projection objective includes an object plane, a first mirror, a second mirror, a third mirror, a fourth mirror; and an image plane. The object plane, the first mirror, the second mirror, the third mirror, the fourth mirror and the image plane are arranged in a centered arrangement around a com...

A tool, particularly for milling operations, capable of being driven in rotation about its own main axis. The tool has a core provided with a plurality of abrasive elements extending from the core radially to the axis and spaced apart from each other angularly. Between at least one pair of abrasive elements adjacent to each other is provided at least one respective gap in the form of a cut extending radially in the core to a predefined distance from the axis.

There is provided an illumination system for microlithography with wavelengths.ltoreq.193 nm. The illumination system includes a primary light source, a first optical component, a second optical component, an image plane, and an exit pupil. The first optical component transforms the primary light source into a plurality of secondary light sources that are imaged by the second optical component in the exit pupil. The first optical component includes a first optical element having a plurality of f...

There is provided an illumination system for microlithography. The illumination system includes an optical element having a plurality of field raster elements, a plane in which a field is illuminated, and a grazing incidence mirror situated in a light path from the optical element to the plane, after the optical element. The illumination system has no other grazing incidence mirror in the light path, after the optical element and before the plane.

An illumination system for scannertype microlithography along a scanning direction with a light source emitting a wavelength especially .ltoreq.193 nm. The illumination system includes a plurality of raster elements. The plurality of raster elements is imaged into an image plane of the illumination system to produce a plurality of images being partially superimposed on a field in the image plane. The field defines a non-rectangular intensity profile in the scanning direction.

There is provided an illumination system. the illumination system includes (a) a source of light having a wavelength of less than or equal to 193 nm, and (b) an optical element in a path of the light, having a first raster element, a second raster element, a third raster element and a fourth raster element situated thereon. The second raster element is adjacent to the first raster element, and located a first distance from the first raster element. The fourth raster element is adjacent to the th...

A bearing, particularly a rubber bearing, has in its fundamental structure at least one bearing bushing and one rubber body surrounded by the bearing bushing. The bearing bushing has at least one longitudinal parting line having edge profiles that are complementary to one another, provided at adjacent longitudinal edges. The tines and tine recesses, respectively, engage into one another at the edge profiles which are complementary to one another. The tine along the one longitudinal edge, in each...

A heating device, particularly for a vehicle, includes a burner for producing combustion heat, and also a heat exchanger for transferring combustion heat produced in the burner to a medium to be heated.
