    Abstract: An extreme ultraviolet light generation system according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a first actuator that changes a travel direction of prepulse laser light to be output from a first optical element arranged on an optical path of the prepulse laser light between a prepulse laser device and a beam combiner, and a second actuator that changes irradiation positions of the prepulse laser light and main pulse laser light to be output from a light concentrating optical system, a plurality of sensors that detect light radiated from a predetermined region by a target being irradiated with the main pulse laser light, and a controller. Here, the controller controls the first actuator so that an evaluation value calculated from output of the plurality of sensors approaches a target value, and thereafter, controls the second actuator so that the evaluation value approaches the target value.

    Abstract: A vibrator unit may be configured to apply vibration to a target material supplied to an inside of a target flow path. The vibrator unit may include a vibration transmission member to be brought into contact with a first member including the target flow path therein, and a piezoelectric member to be brought into contact with the vibration transmission member. The piezoelectric member may be configured to vibrate in response to an electric signal from the outside. The vibration dumping rate of the vibration transmission member may be smaller than the vibration dumping rate of the first member.

    Abstract: An EUV (Extreme Ultra Violet) light source device ionizes a target material in an ionizer, and supplies the ionized target material to a point of generating a plasma. This reduces the generation of debris. The ionizer simultaneously irradiates laser beams of plural wavelengths corresponding to the excited level of tin on a target material to ionize the target material. The ionized target material is extracted from the ionizer with a high voltage applied from an ion beam extractor, and accelerated and supplied to a plasma generation chamber. When driver laser beam is irradiated on the ionized target material, a plasma is generated, thereby emitting EUV radiation.
