  • Spectrometer arrangement
    Patent number: 6597763
    Abstract: A spectrometer arrangement is disclosed for the determination of a radiation wavelength of radiation emitted from a radiation source to be measured. The arrangement includes a diffraction grating on which the radiation of the radiation source to be measured is incident at a predetermined angle, wherein the diffraction grating is provided by a reflection grating having a variable lattice constant. The arrangement also includes a radiation detector for receiving from the radiation source to be measured radiation diffracted at a predetermined angle at the diffraction grating.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 21, 2001
    Date of Patent: July 22, 2003
    Assignee: Carl-Zeiss-Stiftung
    Inventors: Frank Höller, Martin Ross-Messemer, Alexander Menck
  • Diffraction-optical component, illumination system and exposure system comprising such a diffraction-optical component as well as an exposure method employing such an exposure system
    Publication number: 20030007712
    Abstract: A diffraction-optical component for providing a radiation-diffracting grating structure is proposed, comprising a surface wave device including a substrate 43, a surface wave source 47 excitable with an adjustable frequency for producing surface waves on a surface 45 of the substrate 43 and an interaction region 17 of the substrate surface 45 which is provided for the radiation to interact with a grating structure provided by the surface waves produced.

  • Active mirror
    Patent number: 6193381
    Abstract: An active mirror has a reflectively coated diaphragm, a mount, and at least one actuator, in which a second diaphragm is connected to the mount, and the actuator is operatively connected to the two diaphragms. The active mirror is symmetrical with respect to a midplane.
