摘要: The present disclosure is directed to a modularized vessel droplet generator assembly (MGDVA) including a droplet generator assembly (DGA). Under a normal operation, the liquid fuel moves along an operation pathway extending through the DGA to eject or discharge the liquid fuel (e.g., liquid tin) from a nozzle of the DGA into a vacuum chamber. The liquid fuel in the vacuum chamber is then exposed to a laser generating an extreme ultra-violet (EUV) light. Under a service operation, the operation pathway is closed and a service pathway extending through the DGA is opened. A gas is introduced into the service pathway forming a gas-liquid interface between the gas and the liquid fuel. The gas-liquid interface is driven to an isolation valve directly adjacent to the DGA. In other words, the gas pushes back the liquid fuel to the isolation valve. Once the gas-liquid interface reaches the isolation valve, the isolation valve is closed isolating the DGA from the liquid fuel.

摘要: Semiconductor devices and methods of manufacturing semiconductor devices are provided. In embodiments a passivation process is utilized in order to reduce dangling bonds and defects within work function layers within a gate stack. The passivation process introduces a passivating element which will react with the dangling bonds to passivate the dangling bonds. Additionally, in some embodiments the passivating elements will trap other elements and reduce or prevent them from diffusing into other portions of the structure.
