摘要
A compact x-ray source radiates 24 Watts average power of 1nm x-rays in 2pi steradians. The laser produced plasma x-ray source has a 300 W laser driver which is a compact, diode-pumped solid-state Nd:YAG laser system. The x-ray conversion efficiency is 9% of the laser power delivered on target. The x-ray source was used to demonstrate x-ray lithography of 75 nm lines. The x-ray source is optimized for integration with a x-ray stepper to provide a complete x-ray lithography exposure tool for the manufacture of high-speed GaAs devices.
