Abstract: An exposure apparatus includes a droplet supplier to supply a target droplet inside a vacuum chamber, an irradiator irradiating a pulsed laser onto the target droplet, a condensing mirror installed inside the vacuum chamber and configured to condense a light emitted from the target droplet by irradiation of the pulsed laser onto the target droplet, a gas supplier to flow a hydrogen gas along a surface of the condensing mirror, a controller to change a supply condition of the target droplet and an irradiation condition of the pulsed laser to conditions different from conditions during an exposure operation to increase an amount of production of hydrogen radicals in the vacuum chamber, and an exhaust pump to exhaust a gas from an inside of the vacuum chamber.

Abstract: An apparatus for manufacturing integral wooden angle bars from an integral block of wood which includes a pair of grips for abutting opposite sides of the block of wood, a cradle structure, pivotable away from the pair of grips, for receiving the integral block of wood by gravity feeding and for aligning the integral block of wood so as to be abuttable and thereby fixable by the pair of grips; and a pair of saws for making at least first and second incisions in the block of wood while fixed by the grips and cradle, the first incision extending from a first side of the block of wood to a centerplane thereof, and a second incision extending from a second side of the block of wood opposite the first side, to the centerplane, whereby the planes of the first and second incisions intersect at an angle of substantially 90.degree..
