    Mass production EUV market is delayed 3 years, because of delay of high power EUV light source. Therefore DUV is still used in leading edge of mass production line in semiconductor industry. Requirement for DUV source is higher power, precise spectral control and ECO friendly hardware. Gigaphoton released, 120 W product GT64A with Focus drilling technology into the market. On the other hand bottle neck of EUV lithography is still power of EUV light source. In the fi eld the EUV source achieved only 10W level operation. Gigaphoton is developing Proto-2nd phase machine to demonstrate key technologies. Droplet generator is improved dramatically, stable operation >100 h is demonstrated. CO2 laser achieved 9.0 kW operation with 75% duty. EUV light emission 5 W @I/F(at Intermediate Forcus) Clean power during 2 hours is demonstrated very recently. Target of proto-2 is 50 W level one week operation demonstration by Q4 2013. Base technologies for HVM are under development in parallel. High CE technology, we found around 5% CE average with picosecond prepulse. Also demonstrated remarkable reduction of mist after the picosecond pre-pulse. New 25 kW CO2 laser amplifier development project is on going co-operation with Mitsubishi electric. Our target of “Real pilot” shipment is 2015.

    Power scaling of single mode Yb‐doped fiber lasers operating at around 1064 nm has now reached the 10 kW level making it suitable for a variety of high power industrial material processing applications1). However, progress on narrow linewidth, single frequency fiber amplifiers has been much slower because of the fundamental limitations from fiber non-linearities such as stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in the optical fiber. In this paper we discuss the physics of SBS, the fiber and amplifier designs that overcome this limitation and through optimization have allowed narrow linewidth fiber amplifiers to achieve output powers exceeding 1 kW for the first time. We also discuss some of the applications enabled by the latest advances in fiber technology.

    A novel optical fiber sensor has been developed using a femtosecond laser which emits single pulses of 210 fs, 3.6 μJ irradiation at a wavelength of 800 nm. Femtosecond laser machining has successfully been applied to create a bending direction sensing function in an optical fiber sensor, which has previously been impossible for conventional fiber sensors. The sensing portion of the fiber has an internal array micro-voids aligned along the optical fiber axis. The non-axisymmetric disposition of the micro-void array allows bending direction to be detected by observing increases and decreases in the light intensity propagated in the core. In this paper, the performances of fiber bending sensors are shown in terms of directional bending detection capability, sensitivity, reproducibility and laser machining conditions for sensor fabrication. A 2 mm-long sensor element gives average sensitivities of -0.08 and +0.06 dB/mm over a 5 mm displacement range for bending in opposite directions.

    One critical goal of ultra-intense laser applications is the achievement of an ultra-high fi eld, which has never been obtained in laboratories; this would open a new fi eld of science. To realize a high fi eld with high power lasers that are as strong as possible, extremely small f-number or fast focusing optics have been recently developed using a plasma mirror (PM) technique and introduced to high power laser systems. To optimize PM utilization, we experimentally studied the focus abilities of ultra-intense laser light with PM by measuring the focal spot and the laser light refl ectivity. Such PM surface dynamics as thermal expansion depend on the laser intensity and could become one critical factor to determine the PM performance by comparing the experimental result of focus spot with calculations of the laser light foci by a PM.
