Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2006080255
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide EUV optical source equipment in which a condensing mirror is protected from debris which is said to be harmful for mirror coating.

The optical equipment generates extreme ultraviolet ray by irradiating a target with laser beam. It comprises a chamber 100 for generation of extreme ultraviolet ray, a target jetting device 120 and target jetting nozzle 121 which supply a material to be a target in the chamber, a laser light source 110 for generating plasma by radiating the target with laser beam, a condensing mirror 102 for condensing the extreme ultraviolet ray emitted from plasma, an X-ray source 132 to provide charge particles by ionizing neutral particles contained in the particles emitted from the plasma, and magnets 130 and 131 for forming a magnetic field in the chamber to trap at least the neutral particles ionized by the X-ray source.
