摘要
This invention pertains to systems for extending the pulse length of pulsed sources of optical radiation. These systems reduce peak optical pulse power without reducing average optical power. The pulse-width extending systems split optical pulses into pulse portions, introduce relative delays among the pulse portions, and then redirect the pulse portions (or portions thereof) along a common axis. Such pulse-width extending systems are especially useful in projection-exposure apparatus for the manufacture of semiconductor devices where short wavelength, high power optical sources tend to damage optical components.
