    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a radiating system including a radiation generator and an illuminating system capable of measuring a relative position of the radiation generator to the illuminating system with the loss of energy suppressed to a minimum level. SOLUTION: The radiating system includes the radiation generator for generating a radiation beam, a radiation source and the illuminating system so as to receive the radiation beam and provide a projected beam of the radiation. The illuminating system includes a beam measuring system for measuring at least any one of the position and gradient of the radiation beam and a projector for re-directing a part of the section of the radiation beam to the beam measuring system. The beam measuring system may include several position sensors, thereby enabling the system to judge the position adjustment of the radiation source to the illuminating system. A diaphragm is connected to a collector of the radiation generator to enable the compensation of Rx, Ry and Rz besides the compensation of X, Y and Z. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI

    Abstract: A method to align a discharge axis of a discharge radiation source with respect to optics of the lithographic apparatus includes creating a discharge in a substance in a discharge space between an anode and a cathode to form a plasma so as to generate electromagnetic radiation. The discharge is triggered by irradiating an area on a surface proximate the discharge space with an energetic beam. The position of the area is controlled in response to a property of the radiation in the lithographic apparatus and/or the temperature of a collector of the lithographic apparatus. Controlling the position of the area which is irradiated improves alignment of the discharge axis with the different lithographic modules, such as the contamination barrier, the illumination system, the substrate table and/or the projection system.
