Abstract:
A charge control apparatus for controlling charge on a substrate in a vacuum chamber is described. The apparatus includes a light source emitting a beam of radiation having a divergence; a mirror configured to reflect the beam of radiation, wherein a curvature of a mirror surface of the curved mirror is configured to reduce the divergence of the beam of radiation; and a mirror support configured to rotatably support the curved mirror, wherein a rotation of the mirror varies the direction of the beam of radiation.
