Abstract
A design study leading to a new inline catadioptric design type is presented. The design is especially dedicated to be used with extreme ring field geometries not known in lithography optics so far. This may allow to increase the numerical aperture to the physical limits both in dry and immersion lithography. An exemplary system with high numerical aperture is shown.
