    摘要: A lithographic apparatus includes a radiation source configured to produce extreme ultraviolet radiation. The source includes a chamber in which a plasma is generated, and a mirror configured to reflect radiation emitted by the plasma. The mirror includes a multi-layer structure that includes alternating Mo/Si layers. A boundary Mo layer or a boundary Si layer or a boundary diffusion barrier layer of the alternating layers forms a top layer of the mirror, the top layer facing inwardly with respect to the chamber. A hydrogen radical generator is configured to generate hydrogen radicals in the chamber. The radicals are configured to remove debris generated by the plasma from the mirror. A support is constructed and arranged to support a patterning device configured to pattern the radiation to form a patterned beam of radiation. A projection system is constructed and arranged to project the patterned beam of radiation onto a substrate.

    摘要: A collector assembly for use in a laser-produced plasma extreme ultraviolet radiation source for use in lithography has a collector body having a collector mirror and a window in the collector body. The window is transmissive to excitation radiation, which may be an infrared laser beam, so that it can pass through the window to excite the plasma, and the window has an EUV minor on its surface which is also transmissive to the excitation beam but which can reflect EUV generated by the plasma to the collector location of the collector mirror. The window may improve the collection efficiency and reduce non-uniformity in the image at the collector location. Radiation sources, lithographic apparatus and device manufacturing methods may make use of the collector.

    摘要: A radiation source is configured to generate extreme ultraviolet radiation. The radiation source includes a plasma formation site located at a position in which a fuel is contacted by a beam of radiation to form a plasma, a collector constructed and arranged to collect extreme ultraviolet radiation formed at the plasma formation site and form an extreme ultraviolet radiation beam, and a contamination barrier. The contamination barrier includes a plurality of foils at least partially located between the plasma formation site and the collector, and a rotatable base operatively connected to the plurality of foils. The rotatable base is configured to allow the beam of radiation to pass through the contamination barrier to the plasma formation site.
