Abstract
A lithography system includes an optical source configured to emit a pulsed light beam; a lithography apparatus including an optical system, the optical system being positioned to receive the pulsed light beam from the optical source at a first side of the optical system and to emit the pulsed light beam at a second side of the optical system; and a control system coupled to the optical source and the optical lithography apparatus, the control system configured to: receive an indication of an amount of energy in the pulsed light beam at the second side of the optical system, determine an energy error, access an initial control sequence, the initial control sequence being associated with the optical source, determine a second control sequence based on the determined energy error and the initial control sequence, and apply the second control sequence to the optical source.
