Abstract
A laser apparatus includes: (A) a solid-state laser apparatus that outputs burst seed pulsed light containing a plurality of pulses; (B) an excimer amplifier that amplifies the burst seed pulsed light in a discharge space in a single occurrence of discharge and outputs the amplified light as amplified burst pulsed light; (C) an energy sensor that measures the energy of the amplified burst pulsed light; and (D) a laser controller that corrects the timing at which the solid-state laser apparatus is caused to output the burst seed pulsed light based on the relationship of the difference between the timing at which the solid-state laser apparatus outputs the burst seed pulsed light and the timing at which the discharge occurs in the discharge space with a measured value of the energy.
