[0028] The length adjustment range of the main pulse electrode section 1 is selected according to the length of the capillary, in order to realize the adjustable electrode distance in the capillary from 0 to 14 mm, so as to realize capillary discharge with different electrode distances.

specific Embodiment approach 3

[0029] Specific Embodiment 3: This embodiment is a further description of Embodiment 1 or 2. The section radius of the discharge electrode segment 3 is 1.5 mm.

[0030] The diameter of the pre-pulse electrode segment 2 only needs to be larger than the diameter of the main pulse electrode segment 1, so as to achieve a good socket installation between the two. The size of the section radius of the discharge electrode segment 3 is selected according to the inner diameter of the capillary, and the inner ring radius of the capillary is generally 0.5 mm to 10 mm, so the radius of the discharge electrode segment 3 is smaller than the inner radius of the capillary.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a discharge electrode used for a capillary extreme ultraviolet lithography light source, and belongs to the technical field of extreme ultraviolet lithography light sources. Background technique [0002] The capillary discharge ultraviolet EUV (Extreme Ultraviolet) lithography light source refers to the 13.5nm (2% bandwidth) radiation light output obtained under the capillary discharge Z-pinch mechanism using Xe medium. The 13.5nm wavelength radiation light can realize 22nm or even smaller lithography lines. [0003] The specific formation process of the 13.5nm wavelength radiation light is as follows: during the capillary discharge process, the high voltage will form a layer of Xe plasma shell along the inner surface wall in the capillary, and when the main pulse discharges, through the plasma The strong current is affected by its own magnetic field, which will generate a strong Lorentz force, which makes the plasma pinch in ...
