Patent number: 7115886Abstract: In-situ cleaning of optical components for use in a lithographic projection apparatus can be carried out by irradiating a space within the apparatus containing the optical component with UV or EUV radiation having a wavelength of less than 250 nm, in the presence of molecular oxygen. Generally, the space will be purged with an ozoneless purge gas which contains a small amount of molecular oxygen in addition to the usual purge gas composition. The technique can also be used in an evacuated space by introducing a low pressure of molecular oxygen into the space.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2004Date of Patent: October 3, 2006Assignee: ASML Netherlands B.V.Inventors: Willem Van Schaik, Bastiaan Matthias Mertens, Hans Meiling, Norbertus Benedictus Koster

Patent number: 6924492Abstract: Pre-cleaning or in situ cleaning of optical components for use in a lithographic projection apparatus can be carried out by irradiating the optical component with microwave and/or infra-red radiation, preferably infra-red radiation having a wavelength or a range of wavelengths in the range of from 1000 cm?1 to 4600 cm?1. This technique may be suitable for cleaning a mask. By monitoring the absorption of microwave and/or infra-red radiation directed at a contaminated optical component, the degree of contamination of said component can be qualified. This method may also be suitable for reducing the partial pressure of water in EUV apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2001Date of Patent: August 2, 2005Assignee: ASML Netherlands B.V.Inventor: Willem Van Schaik
