Abstract
This study examines the possibility for two different discharge configurations to achieve the plasma conditions required for a lithium vapor discharge source operating at 13.5 nm. Due to the difficulties of working with a pure lithium vapor system, the experiments were carried out using noble gases. The results suggest that a lithium vapor capillary discharge could be a suitable configuration for an EUVL lamp.
