Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method for preventing photomask contamination includes securing a photomask on a bottom surface of an electrostatic chuck; generating a first voltage at a peripheral area of the bottom surface of the electrostatic chuck to attract a particle onto the peripheral area of the bottom surface of the electrostatic chuck, wherein the peripheral area of the bottom surface of the electrostatic chuck is not directly above the photomask; after generating the first voltage, generating a second voltage at the peripheral area of the bottom surface of the electrostatic chuck to repulse the particle, wherein the first voltage and the second voltage have opposite electrical properties; and generating a third voltage, by using a collecting plate, near a sidewall of the photomask to attract the repulsed particle.
