Abstract

See full text

A dark-field particle monitor and a method for reducing errors due to stray light in the particle monitor provides a particle monitor having (i) an optical element focussed on the laser beam for detecting particles and (ii) a filter for preferentially selecting light incident on said filter in a preferential direction. In one embodiments the filter is implemented by a narrow band filter having maximum transmission for light having a wavelength of the laser beam.
