Abstract

A lithographic apparatus includes a machine table, a base, a placement table, a first baffle plate, a first driving device, and a transporting device. The machine table has a cavity formed by a side surface, a top surface, and a bottom surface. A conveying door is arranged on the side surface. A transferring device in the cavity can extend out from or retract back into the cavity through the conveying door. The placement table is configured to bear a mask carrier, and can at least extend out from or retract back to a bearing surface of the base. The first driving device is configured to drive the placement table to reciprocate between a first position and a second position.
