摘要： A bidirectional bandwidth controlled grating assembly. A spring housing is connected to one of two end plates extending away from the lined surface of the grating. An adjustment rod threaded through the other end plate extends into the spring housing. Inside the spring housing in a preferred embodiment are two compression springs mounted between pressure surfaces in the housing and a piston which is fixed on the adjustment rod. The lined surface of the grating can be made more concave (or less convex) by screwing the rod in a direction into the spring housing compressing one of the springs to push the end plates apart and the surface can be made more convex (or less concave) by screwing the rod in a direction out of the spring housing compressing the other spring to pull the end plates toward each other.

摘要： An LPP EUV light source is disclosed having an optic positioned in the plasma chamber for reflecting EUV light generated therein and a laser input window. For this aspect, the EUV light source may be configured to expose the optic to a gaseous etchant pressure for optic cleaning while the window is exposed to a lower gaseous etchant pressure to avoid window coating deterioration. In another aspect, an EUV light source may comprise a target material positionable along a beam path to participate in a first interaction with light on the beam path; an optical amplifier; and at least one optic directing photons scattered from the first interaction into the optical amplifier to produce a laser beam on the beam path for a subsequent interaction with the target material to produce an EUV light emitting plasma.
