| description | Systems (and methods therefor) for generating EUV radiation that comprise an arrangement producing a laser beam directed to an irradiation region and a droplet source. The droplet source includes a fluid exiting an orifice and a sub-system having an electro-actuatable element producing a disturbance in the fluid. The electro-actuatable element is driven by a first waveform to produce droplets for irradiation to generate the EUV radiation, the droplets produced by the first waveform having differing initial velocities causing at least some adjacent droplets to coalesce as the droplets travel to the irradiation region, and a second waveform, different from the first waveform, to dislodge contaminants from the orifice. |
