摘要:
In a method for generating extreme ultraviolet radiation or soft x-ray radiation by means of gas discharge, in particular, for EUV lithography, a discharge vessel is provided with two electrodes that are connected to high voltage. Between the electrodes, in an area of two electrode recesses that are coaxial to one another, a gas fill with predetermined gas pressure in accordance with a discharge operation realized on the left branch of the Paschen curve is provided. In this area, a plasma emitting the radiation is generated when supplying energy. The plasma is displaced or deformed by a pressure change of the gas fill in the area of the electrode recesses.
