Abstract:
The invention relates to an EUV lithography apparatus with at least one EUV-reflective optical surface and a cavity ringdown reflectometer adapted to determine the contamination status of the EUV-reflective optical surface for at least one contaminating substance by determining the reflectivity of the EUV-reflective optical surface for radiation at a measuring wavelength (λm). The invention further relates to a method for determining the contamination status of at least one EUV-reflective optical surface arranged in an EUV lithography apparatus for at least one contaminating substance comprising determining the reflectivity of the EUV-reflective optical surface for radiation at a measuring wavelength (λm) using a cavity ringdown reflectometer.
