Abstract

See full text

A residual gas analyser (40) for analysis of a residual gas (30), in particular a residual gas in an EUV lithography system (1), includes an inlet system (41) for admission of the residual gas from a vacuum environment (27a) into the residual gas analyser, and a mass analyser (43) having a detector (44) for detecting ionized constituents (30a) of the residual gas. The residual gas analyser includes an ion transfer device (42) for transferring the ionized constituents of the residual gas to the mass analyser, the ion transfer device having an ion filtering device (45) configured for filtering at least one ionic constituent (30a) of the residual gas. Also disclosed is an EUV lithography system, in particular an EUV lithography apparatus, which includes at least one residual gas analyser configured as indicated above for analysing a residual gas in a vacuum environment of the EUV lithography system.
