Summary: | PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and a method for protecting a mask from being contaminated by airborne particles. SOLUTION: The system and method include a step of providing a reticle secured in a two-part cover. The two-part cover includes a removable protection device used to protect the reticle from contaminants. The cover can be held inside a pod or box. The pod or box can be used to transport the cover through a lithography system from an atmospheric section to a vacuum section. While in the vacuum section, the removable cover can be moved during an exposure process. A pattern on the reticle can be formed on a wafer during the exposure process. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
