Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/059674
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
In one aspect of this invention, the target material (271) is used for a target generation device (26, 120, 140, 51, 112) of an extreme UV generation device (1), wherein the concentration of dissolved oxygen may be less than or equal to the oxygen saturation concentration at a first temperature (Top), which is the temperature of the target material being delivered by the target generation device. In another aspect of the invention, the material processing device may comprise a tank unit (260) for containing the target material, a temperature changing device (140) for changing the temperature of the target material inside the tank unit, and a control unit (201/301) for controlling the temperature changing device so that the target material (273) inside the tank unit is melted at a second temperature (Td) and then solidified, the second temperature (Td) being less than or equal to the first temperature which is the temperature of the target material being delivered by the target generation device of the extreme UV generation device.
