Abstract

A lens contamination prevention device, comprising a first device () and a second device (400) connected to the first device (300); the first device (300) is closer to a lens (100) relative to the second device (400), wherein the first device (300) is used to output protective layer gas, and the protective layer gas flows uniformly against the lower surface of the lens (100) by means of a nozzle (330), which may clean the already contaminated lens (100) and form a protective layer so as to prevent recontamination; the second device (400) is used to take away the gas near a contamination source, and the contamination gas enters an annular cavity (420) by means of a small hole (410) and is discharged into a remote environment by means of exhaust power of an exhaust channel (200). Also disclosed is a lens contamination prevention method. Before exposure, first the first device (300) is turned on, then the second device (400) is turned on, and the second device (400) may be turned off after 12 hours of exposure has been complete. The device and method may better solve the problem wherein photoresist organic matter volatilizes and contaminates the lens, and have the advantages of simple installation, long service life, low cost and high reliability, ensuring that the contamination matter is completely removed and does not enter the inside of the lens. 14
