Abstract
Provided is an adhesive removing device for removing an adhesive for adhering a mask and a pellicle from the mask. The adhesive removing device includes: a laser irradiating unit configured to irradiate a laser beam to an adhesive layer formed between the mask and the pellicle; a controller configured to control a wavelength, a waveform, and an energy density of the laser beam, so as to remove the adhesive layer through emission of the laser beam; and an imaging unit configured to monitor a region to which the laser beam is irradiated.
