Abstract:
A method for filtering particles out of a beam of radiation propagating from a radiation source is provided. The method includes passing the beam of radiation through a filter having a first portion within the beam of radiation and a second portion outside of the beam of radiation, capturing at least some of the particles in the beam of radiation with the first portion, and moving the filter in a direction that is transverse to the beam of radiation so that the first portion is moved outside of the beam of radiation and the second portion is moved into the beam of radiation.
