17 Conclusion Generation of optional pulse shape by Yb doped fiber laser system for EUV lithography laser The optional pulse shape generator by Yb doped fiber laser system. Yb fiber laser system operated the polarization-maintained pulsed for single transverse and -longitudinal mode using fiber Bragg grating (FBG). The laser oscillator can be tuned at four wavelengths of 1030, 1053, 1064 and 1080 nm. This system generates optional pulse shapes that sliced up the Yb fiber oscillator by a LN (LiNbO3) intense modulator with 12.5-GHz bandwidth. The several output waveforms were obtained including rectangular pulse from 1ns to 12.5 ns with a 500-ps rise time, and Gaussian pulse from 1 to 25 ns. The highest output energy of about 250 nj for 10-ns Gaussian pulse was achieved at 100-kHz repetition rate. The output power has been increased over 30W (300µJ, 100kHz) by a 30-µm core Yb double-clad polarization-maintained LMA fiber and 57W (570µJ, 100kHz) by a 50-µm core MMF fiber 17
