Popis: Within PREUVE, our group developed an EUV source that will meet α-tool specifications in 2002. With this aim, a laser-produced plasma source was built that uses a dense and confined xenon jet target. This device assures high conversion efficiency and low debris flux which are necessary for future extreme ultraviolet lithography. Our technical solution is based on a specific target injector design and the use of well adapted nozzle materials. After injection, the xenon is recycled and purified to reach a low cost of operation. Our ELSA source will allow 2 years full operation of the BEL lithography test bench.
