Using Temporally Synthesized Laser Pulses to Enhance the Conversion Efficiency of Sn Plasmas for EUV Lithography

We have studied the laser pulse shape dependence of the conversion efficiency of λ = 1.03 μm laser pulse energy into 13.5 nm extreme ultraviolet (EUV) emission from a Sn laser-produced plasma. Laser pulses of arbitrary temporal shape ranging from hundreds of picoseconds to seve...
