    摘要: There is provided an illumination system. The illumination system includes a source of light having a wavelength of less than or equal to about 193 nm, a first facet, a second facet, and a reflective element. The light is incident on the first facet via a first path, propagates from the first facet to the second facet via a second path, and propagates from the second facet to the reflective element via a third path. The second path and the third path are in substantially opposite directions from one another and substantially parallel to each other.

    摘要: An Illumination system for a microlithographic projection exposure apparatus has a light source and a first optical raster element that is positioned in or in close proximity to a first plane. The first plane is conjugated to a pupil plane of the illumination system by Fourier transformation. A second optical raster element is positioned in or in close proximity to the pupil plane. A third optical raster element is positioned in or in close proximity to a second plane that is also conjugated to the pupil plane by Fourier transformation. The third optical raster element, which can be a diffractive optical element, introduces an additional degree of design freedom for the modification of the angular distribution of the projection light bundle.

    摘要: An illumination system of a microlithographic exposure apparatus has an optical axis and a beam transforming device. This device includes a first mirror with a first reflective surface having a shape that is defined by rotating a straight line, which is inclined with respect to the optical axis, around the optical axis. The device further includes a second mirror with a second reflective surface having a shape that is defined by rotating a curved line around the optical axis. At least one of the mirrors has a central aperture containing the optical axis. This device may form a zoom-collimator for an EUV illumination system that transforms a diverging light bundle into a collimated light bundle of variable shape and/or diameter.

    摘要: There is provided an illumination system. The illumination system includes a source for light having a wavelength ≦193 nm, a field plane, and a collector having a mirror shell for receiving a part of the light. The mirror shell is arranged so that a real image of the source is formed and comes to lie in a plane that is defocused relative to the field plane by more than 30 mm, so that the field plane is illuminated in a predetermined region, substantially homogeneously.
