Abstract:
The present invention is to provide a method for smoothing the optical surface having a concave defect of an optical component for EUVL.The present invention relates to a method for smoothing the optical surface of an optical component for EUVL, comprising irradiating, with an excimer laser having a wavelength of 250 nm or less with a fluence of 0.5 to 2.0 J/cm2, the optical surface having a concave defect of an optical component for EUV lithography (EUVL), the optical component being made of a TiO2-containing silica glass material comprising SiO2 as a main component.
