  • Abstract
    An extreme ultraviolet (EUV) plasma source intended for future lithography applications is presented. The plasma source efficiently emits EUV light around 13.5 nm with 2% bandwidth. Debris mitigation and collector systems are successfully implemented to achieve a focused beam of debris-free EUV photons that can be used in EUV lithography.
