Abstract: A turbine includes a turbine wheel, a housing having a flow path for a gas, a variable geometry device to guide the gas from the flow path to the turbine wheel, and a biasing member. The variable geometry device includes one or more nozzle vane member, each having a nozzle vane, a nozzle shaft and a nozzle link plate. The biasing member is in contact with the nozzle link plate of the nozzle vane member, to urge the nozzle vane member against a contact surface of the turbine.

Abstract: An extreme ultraviolet light generating apparatus may include a chamber including a window to allow first and second pulse laser beams to enter, a mirror to reflect the first pulse laser beam, a first actuator to control a position or a posture of the mirror, a beam combiner to cause optical paths of the first and second pulse laser beams to substantially coincide with each other, a reflective optical system to reflect the first and second pulse laser beams from the beam combiner, a second actuator to control a position or a posture of the reflective optical system, sensors each configured to output data for detecting a position of an optical path of the first pulse laser beam, and a controller to control the first actuator based on the data and control the second actuator based on a value related to control of the first actuator.

Abstract: A laser apparatus may include a master oscillator configured to output a laser beam, at least one amplifier disposed in a beam path of the laser beam from the master oscillator, at least one power source for applying a high-frequency voltage to the at least one amplifier, and a controller for varying the high-frequency voltage to be applied to the at least one amplifier from the at least one power source.
