Abstract

See full text

A method is described of controlling contamination of a surface exposed to a carbonaceous material and ionising radiation, such as EUV radiation, DUV radiation or electrons. The method comprises cyclically supplying to the surface a first gas comprising an oxidising species, for example NO, for reacting with carbonaceous deposits formed on the surface from the carbonaceous material, followed by a second gas comprising a reducing species, for example CO, for reacting with oxidising species on the surface.
