Abstract:
A mirror includes a mirror base provided with a flow channel through which a heat medium passes for cooling the mirror. The flow channel includes a buffer tank, portion for adjusting a flow rate of the heat medium in the flow channel. A reflective film is provided on the mirror base.
Abstract:
A laser apparatus may include: a master oscillator configured to output a pulsed laser beam at a repetition rate; at least one amplifier disposed on a beam path of the pulsed laser beam; at least one optical shutter disposed on the beam path of the pulsed laser beam; and a controller configured to switch the at least one optical shutter.
Abstract:
An optical device may include: a first beam shaping unit configured to transform a first laser beam incident thereon into a second laser beam having an annular cross section; and a first focusing optical element for focusing the second laser beam in a first predetermined location so as to generate a Bessel beam.
Abstract:
An apparatus uses first and second laser beams from a laser apparatus to generate extreme ultraviolet light. The apparatus may include a chamber provided with at least one inlet through which at least one of first and second laser beams outputted from the laser apparatus travels into the chamber. A beam shaping unit is provided on a beam path of the first laser beam for transforming the first laser beam into a hollow laser beam. A first focusing optical element is provided downstream of the beam shaping unit for focusing the hollow laser beam in a first location inside the chamber.
Abstract:
Provided is a laser device (1) which is installed within a predetermined space and on a predetermined floor area, the laser device includes: a master oscillator (11); at least one amplifier unit (MA) that amplifies a laser beam outputted from the master oscillator; at least one power source (D4, D5) unit that supplies excitation energy to the at least one amplifier unit; and a movement mechanism which enables at least one among the at least one amplifier unit and the at least one power source unit to be moved in a direction parallel with a floor surface.
