ABSTRACT:
At least one exemplary embodiment is directed to an alignment apparatus which includes a moving member, a structural object arranged on the moving member, and an electromagnetic actuator which moves the structural object relative to the moving member. The electromagnetic actuator includes a plurality of linear motor units, which apply forces in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction to the structural object. The plurality of linear motor units apply, to the structural object, forces in the rotation direction about each of two axes orthogonal to each other in the horizontal plane and the rotation direction about the axis in the vertical direction.
