An EUV light source of the present invention is capable of using a saturable absorber stably and continuously in a high heat load state. A saturable absorber (SA) device is disposed on a laser beam line to absorb feeble light, such as self-excited oscillation light, parasitic oscillation light or return light. SA gas from an SA gas cylinder and buffer gas from a buffer gas cylinder are mixed to be a mixed gas. The mixed gas is supplied to an SA gas cell via a supply pipeline, and absorbs the feeble light included in the laser beam. The mixed gas is exhausted via an exhaust pipeline, and is sent to a heat exchanger. The mixed gas, cooled down by a heat exchanger, is sent back to the SA gas cell by a circulation pump.

An oscillator circuit is disclosed which can be formed using discrete field-effect transistors (FETs), or as a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) integrated circuit. The oscillator circuit utilizes a Pierce oscillator design with three inverter stages connected in series. A feedback resistor provided in a feedback loop about a second inverter stage provides an almost ideal inverting transconductance thereby allowing high-Q operation at the resonator-controlled frequency while suppressing a parasitic oscillation frequency that is inherent in a Pierce configuration using a “standard” triple inverter for the sustaining amplifier. The oscillator circuit, which operates in a range of 10–50 MHz, has applications for use as a clock in a microprocessor and can also be used for sensor applications.

A balanced momentum probe holder in an apparatus for characterizing a sample surface has first and second members each having extensible and retractable distal ends. The distal ends extend or retract substantially simultaneously in response to a signal from a detector thus balancing the momentums of the first and second members and reducing the net momentum of the probe holder to essentially zero. Balancing the momentum of the probe holder reduces parasitic oscillations in the apparatus thus enhancing performance.

This invention claims a novel radio frequency receiver system for selecting a digitally modulated carrier frequency, and more specifically a Zero Point, amplitude Modulated (ZPM) carrier frequency. ZPM modulation does not create side-band frequencies, thus allowing individual carriers to be very closely spaced. Traditional methods of frequency selection utilize resonant tuning circuits in the antenna circuit and following amplifier circuits. Resonant tuning circuits are the assemblage of inductors and capacitors that are subject to parasitic oscillations, harmonic oscillations, as well as environmental effects. While modern technology has sufficiently overcome these detriments for traditional radio communication, ZPM theory desires to tune to a single frequency carrier with only one cycle of difference between carriers. Obvious to those skilled in the art, this requires a non-traditional method. For ZPM carriers, all signal-handling circuits must be non or insignificantly reactive and process the signal in linear fashion throughout the receiver signal path. This invention accomplishes the required functions by a unique combination of standard integrated circuits and circuit components.
