    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a synthetic quartz glass optical material having a high optical transmittance for a radiation 157 nm in wavelength emitted from F2 excimer laser and a high resistance against irradiation of a F2 excimer laser radiation, yet having a uniformity suitable for such a fine patterning using a F2 excimer laser, and to provide an optical member using the same. The problems above are solved by a synthetic quartz glass optical material for F2 excimer lasers having an OH group concentration of 0.5 ppm or lower, a fluorine concentration of 0.1 to 2 mol %, a hydrogen molecule concentration of 5null1016 molecules/cm3 or lower, a difference between the maximum and minimum fluorine concentrations within 20 mol ppm, and a difference between the maximum and minimum refraction indices of 2null10null5 or lower.

    Abstract: Lithographic methods are disclosed. In one such method, a pulsed ultraviolet radiation source for producing ultraviolet lithography radiation having a wavelength shorter than about 300 nm at a fluence of less than 10 mJ/cm2/pulse and a high purity fused silica lithography glass having a concentration of molecular hydrogen of between about 0.02null1018 molecules/cm3 and about 0.18null1018 molecules/cm3 are provided. A lithography pattern is formed with the ultraviolet lithography radiation; the lithography pattern is reduced to produce a reduced lithography pattern; and the reduced lithography pattern is projected onto a ultraviolet radiation sensitive lithography medium to form a printed lithography pattern. At least one of the forming, reducing, and projecting steps includes transmitting the ultraviolet lithography radiation through the high purity fused silica lithography glass. Lithography systems and high purity fused silica lithography glass are also described.
