Title:
EXTREME ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT SOURCE DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2015/182092
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention discloses an extreme ultraviolet light source device with which efficient EUV radiation can be stably obtained. This EUV light source device (100) is provided with a first laser source (31a) which shines a laser light (L1) on a high-temperature plasma raw material (22a), and a second laser source (31b) which, after the laser light (L1) is shone on the high-temperature plasma raw material (22a) and before effective extreme ultraviolet light is emitted, shines a laser light (L2) on a region of the raw material on which the laser light (L1) has been shone. The EUV light source device (100) is further provided with a return light prevention portion (321) which prevents return light of the laser light (L1) shone by the first laser source (31a) from reaching a light emission opening of the second laser source (31b).
