    摘要: The invention is directed to an arrangement for generating EUV radiation based on a gas discharge plasma with high radiation emission in the range between 12 nm and 14 nm. It is the object of the invention to find a novel possibility for plasma-based radiation generation with high radiation output in the EUV spectral region (between 12 nm and 14 nm) which makes it possible to use tin as a work medium in EUV gas discharge sources for industrial applications. This object is met, according to the invention, in that a gas preparation unit is provided for defined control of the temperature and pressure of a tin-containing work medium and the flow thereof into the vacuum chamber in gaseous state. At least one thermally insulated reservoir vessel and a thermally insulated supply line are provided for transferring the gaseous tin-containing work medium from the gas preparation unit to the pre-ionization unit located inside the electrode housing.
