    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a radiation system capable of improving conversion efficiency of EUV radiation/emission plasma, and to provide a lithographic device.SOLUTION: The radiation system includes a target material source for supplying droplets of a target material along a track, and a laser system including an amplifier and an optical system. The optical system establishes a first beam path which passes through the amplifier and a first point on the track, and establishes a second beam path which passes through the amplifier and a second point on the track. When a photon emitted from the amplifier is reflected along the first beam path by the droplet of the target material at the first point on the track, the laser system generates a first pulse of laser radiation. When a photon emitted from the amplifier is reflected along the second beam path by the droplet of the target material at the second point on the track, the laser system generates a second pulse of laser radiation.

    Abstract: A method comprising the steps of receiving a mask assembly comprising a mask and a removable EUV transparent pellicle held by a pellicle frame, removing the pellicle frame and EUV transparent pellicle from the mask, using an inspection tool to inspect the mask pattern on the mask, and subsequently attaching to the mask an EUV transparent pellicle held by a pellicle frame. The method may also comprise the following steps: after removing the pellicle frame and EUV transparent pellicle from the mask, attaching to the mask an alternative pellicle frame holding an alternative pellicle formed from a material which is substantially transparent to an inspection beam of the inspection tool; and after using an inspection tool to inspect the mask pattern on the mask, removing the alternative pellicle held by the alternative pellicle frame from the mask in order to attach to the mask the EUV transparent pellicle held by the pellicle frame.
