Abstract: A next processing pin is applied as a follow-on pin to a stone, wherein the stone is held by a preceding pin and fixed to the stone by way of a first adhesive bonding location. The preceding pin is separated from the stone. The follow-on pin is fixed to the stone by way of a second adhesive bonding location spaced from the first adhesive bonding location. The follow-on pin frontally receives a fluid adhesive at a spacing from the stone and the spacing between the adhesive-coated front end and the stone is reduced until the adhesive front end contacts the stone. The adhesive is hardened at the contact location as the second adhesive bonding location and heat is transferred by way of the preceding pin to the first adhesive bonding location A force component is exerted on the preceding pin to release the pin from the stone and to hold the stone with the next pin.

Abstract: A method for preventing contaminating gaseous substances (18) from passing through an opening (17b) in a housing (4a) of an EUV lithography apparatus (1), wherein at least one optical element for guiding EUV radiation (6) is arranged in the housing (4a). The method involves: generating at least one gas flow (21a, 21b) which deflects the contaminating substances (18, 18?), and in particular is directed counter to the flow direction (Z) thereof, in the region of the opening (17b). The gas flow (21a, 21b) and the EUV radiation (6) are generated in pulsed fashion and the pulse rate of the gas flow (21a, 21b) is defined in a manner dependent on the pulse rate of the contaminating substances (18, 18?) released under the action of the pulsed EUV radiation (6), wherein both pulse rates are preferably equal in magnitude, and wherein, in the region of the opening (17b), the gas pulses temporally overlap the pulses of the contaminating substances (18, 18?).
