Embodiment 1

[0042] Such as figure 1 As shown, this embodiment discloses a gas analysis device for analyzing the gas in the chamber to be measured, including: a sampling chamber 201, an analysis chamber 501, a gas analyzer 6, and a calibration module. The sampling chamber 201 is connected to the chamber to be tested 10 through the first valve 203, and is used to introduce the sample gas from the chamber to be tested 10 and the standard gas provided by the calibration module. Multiple chambers are tested separately in situ. The analysis chamber 501 is connected to the sampling chamber 201 through the second valve. The analysis chamber 501 is provided with a vacuum gauge 504 for monitoring the vacuum degree of the analysis chamber 501. The vacuum degree of the analysis chamber 501 should meet the working requirements of the gas analyzer 6, otherwise It will burn out the gas analyzer 6. The gas analyzer 6 is set in the analysis chamber 501 for analyzing and testing the gas to be analyzed; t...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of gas analysis, in particular to a gas analysis device and method with an in-situ calibration function. Background technique [0002] A lithographic apparatus is a machine that transfers the desired pattern onto a substrate. In lithographic apparatus, hydrocarbon-containing contamination gases emanating from substrates can damage optical components. Especially in EUV lithography devices, since all known substances have a strong absorption effect on EUV light near 13.5nm, it is necessary to minimize its loss on the transmission path. Especially for the optical components inside the lithography apparatus, the contamination by the polluted gas may cause irreparable damage, and huge costs will be paid for maintenance. In order to prevent this kind of damage, it is necessary to equip the lithography equipment with a gas analysis device to detect such gas contamination, monitor the vacuum environment of extreme...
