Abstract: The present invention provides methods and apparatus for facilitating the start up of a fuel droplet stream generator. During a start-up phase the fuel droplet stream generator is positioned so that the fuel droplets re emitted downwardly whereby gravity assists in the establishment of the stream. The droplets are monitored using a visualization system and once the stream is determined to have the desired characteristics the stream generator is moved to a second position of steady state use in which the droplet stream is emitted in a horizontal direction.

Abstract: A radiation source (e.g., LPP— laser produced plasma source) for generation of extreme UV (EUV) radiation has at least two fuel particle streams having different trajectories. Each stream is directed to cross the path of an excitation (laser) beam focused at a plasma formation region, but the trajectories are spaced apart at the plasma formation region, and the streams phased, so that only one stream has a fuel particle in the plasma formation region at any time, and so that when a fuel particle from one stream is generating plasma and EUV radiation at the plasma generation region, other fuel particles are sufficiently spaced so as to be substantially unaffected by the plasma. The arrangement permits potential doubling of the radiation intensity achievable for a particular fuel particle size.
Abstract translation: 用于产生极端UV(EUV)辐射的辐射源(例如,LPP激光产生的等离子体源)具有至少两个具有不同轨迹的燃料粒子流。 每个流被引导以跨过等离子体形成区域聚焦的激发(激光)束的路径,但是轨迹在等离子体形成区域处被间隔开,并且流被相位化,使得仅一条流在 等离子体形成区域,并且使得当来自一个流的燃料粒子在等离子体产生区域产生等离子体和EUV辐射时,其它燃料颗粒被充分间隔开,以致基本上不受等离子体的影响。 该布置允许对于特定燃料粒子尺寸可实现的辐射强度的潜在加倍。
