Abstract

The invention relates to a holder for holding and for protecting a side of a photomask or a photomask having pellicle from a cleaning medium, to a method for cleaning such a photomask, and to a device for opening and closing a holder. The holder (1) has a base having at least three support elements (15), which are arranged at a distance from a bottom (9) of the base for holding and for retaining the photomask or the photomask having pellicle, and has sealing frame (7, 20, 21), having a top side (24) and a bottom side (25), wherein the bottom side can be placed onto the base, and wherein the sealing frame has a center opening (26), which is dimensioned in such a way that the center opening can accommodate the photomask with spacing. A peripheral, elastic sealing element (22) is provided on the sealing frame, which sealing element extends from the inner periphery of the center opening into the center opening at an angle to the top side of the sealing frame, wherein, in an unloaded state, the sealing element has an inner periphery that is smaller than the outer periphery of the photomask and, in a loaded state, the sealing element peripherally contacts, at the side edge, a photomask accommodated in the center opening.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a holder for receiving and protecting the sides of a photomask or a pellicle from a cleaning medium, a light for cleaning a photomask or a pellicle A method of masking the sides and a means of switching a holder of the above type. Background technique [0002] In particular, in the field of semiconductor technology, it is known to use photomasks for photolithography processes. For good processing results, photomasks must be cleaned regularly. To protect certain surfaces of photomasks against contamination by particles, in some cases so-called pellicles are used. [0003] A pellicle is a thin film or film that is held at a distance from the surface of the photomask to be protected by, for example, a frame, which is glued to the sides of the photomask to be protected. The particles therefore cannot reach the respective surfaces of the photomask, and if present, they stick to the pellicle. The pellicle is disposed at a...
