Abstract
An ArF excimer laser device and a fluoride laser device for exposure which is structured so that primary current that infuses energy from a magnetic pulse compression circuit to discharge electrodes via a peaking capacitor overlaps secondary current that infuses energy from the capacitor in the final stage of the magnetic pulse compression circuit to the discharge electrodes, the oscillation cycle of the secondary current is set longer than the oscillation cycle of the primary current, and a pulse of laser oscillation operation is effected by the initial half-cycle of the discharge oscillation current waveform that reverses the polarity of the primary current being overlapped by the secondary current and by at least two half-cycles continuing thereafter, as a result of which a high repetition rate, pulse stretch, line-narrowed ArF excimer laser device and fluorine laser device can be implemented at repetition rate exceeding 2 kHz.
