    Abstract: A radiation source is configured to generate extreme ultraviolet radiation. The radiation source includes a plasma formation site located at a position in which a fuel is contacted by a beam of radiation to form a plasma, a collector constructed and arranged to collect extreme ultraviolet radiation formed at the plasma formation site and form an extreme ultraviolet radiation beam, and a contamination barrier. The contamination barrier includes a plurality of foils at least partially located between the plasma formation site and the collector, and a rotatable base operatively connected to the plurality of foils. The rotatable base is configured to allow the beam of radiation to pass through the contamination barrier to the plasma formation site.

    Abstract: A debris prevention system is constructed and arranged to prevent debris that emanates from a radiation source from propagating with radiation from the radiation source into or within a lithographic apparatus. The debris prevention system includes an aperture that defines a maximum emission angle of the radiation coming from the radiation source, and a first debris barrier having a radiation transmittance. The first debris barrier includes a rotatable foil trap. The debris prevention system also includes a second debris barrier that has a radiation transmittance. The first debris barrier is configured to cover a part of the emission angle and the second debris barrier is configured to cover another part of the emission angle.
