    Abstract: A lithography system is provided capable of deterring contaminants, such as tin debris from entering into the scanner. The lithography system in accordance with various embodiments of the present disclosure includes a processor, an extreme ultraviolet light source, a scanner, and a hollow connection member. The light source includes a droplet generator for generating a droplet, a collector for reflecting extreme ultraviolet light into an intermediate focus point, and a light generator for generating pre-pulse light and main pulse light. The droplet generates the extreme ultraviolet light in response to the droplet being illuminated with the pre-pulse light and the main pulse light. The scanner includes a wafer stage. The hollow connection member includes an inlet that is in fluid communication with an exhaust pump. The hollow connection member provides a hollow space in which the intermediate focus point is disposed. The hollow connection member is disposed between the extreme ultraviolet light source and the scanner.
