Abstract: An apparatus used with an external laser apparatus for generating extreme ultraviolet light includes a target storage unit for storing a target material, a nozzle unit having a through-hole in communication with the interior of the storage unit through which the target material is outputted, an electrode having a through-hole facing the nozzle unit, and a target detector for detecting a target formed of the target material and outputting a detection signal. A direct current voltage adjuster applies and adjusts a direct current between the target material and the electrode, a pressure adjuster applies and adjusts a pressure to the target material through gas, and a controller controls at least one of the direct current voltage adjuster and the pressure adjuster based on the detection signal from the target detector.
