A positioning method for particles on a reticle includes: data of positions passed by a target reticle within a preset period of time is determined according to path data of the target reticle that includes particle information of the target reticle at each scan moment; position information of the target reticle when particles are present on a surface of the target reticle is determined according to the data of positions, to obtain target position data of the target reticle; reticle position data of the target reticle within adjacent scan moments is determined according to the target position data, and a particle source position of the particles on the surface of the target reticle is determined from the reticle position data according to position priorities; and a particle position analysis report of the target reticle within the preset period of time is generated according to the particle source position.
