Revision History...................................................................................................................... 21 1. Introduction The EQ-77 Laser-Driven Light Source is a broad-band lamp system for use in a wide variety of applications. The lamp produces high brightness, broad-band light from DUV wavelengths through visible and beyond. The output is very stable and has a long lifetime before any service is required. A simple control interface ensures ease of use. Some of the advantages of the EQ-77 include: Very high brightness across complete spectrum 190nm through visible and beyond Eliminates need for multiple lamps (replaces D2/Tungsten/Xenon Arc) Simplified optical system Excellent spatial stability Repeatable measurements Superior short and long term power stability Repeatable measurements Electrodeless operation for long life Reduced consumable costs Minimal recalibration of instrument The EQ-77 system consists of a Power Supply Controller unit, Lamp House unit, and interconnecting cable. Connections to AC power and cooling fluid are required for operation. A connection to nitrogen purge gas is strongly recommended during operation. For additional information contact Energetiq Technology Technical Support Services at +1-781-939-0763 X111 or e-mail: EUVproductsupport@Energetiq.com 2. Safety and Compliance 2.1. General Precautions The output beam from the EQ-77 should be blocked when not in use with an electronic shutter or other appropriate beam blocking device. Due to the possibility of generating ozone with some models of EQ-77 when ambient oxygen is exposed to short wavelength light, the beam should always be enclosed in an appropriate beam pipe, tube, or enclosed space. We recommend purging any beam transport space with dry nitrogen gas. The EQ-77 source must also be cabled correctly and connected to a power source with a protective earth ground prior to operation. Refer to the Installation section of this manual in Section 4 for details of the facilities connections. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the EQ-77. For any problems encountered during operation, please contact Energetiq Technology for assistance. If there is a component failure, do not attempt to open the Power Supply Controller or Lamp House enclosure of the EQ-77. The EQ-77 utilizes a quartz lamp containing a high-pressure gas fill. Explosion of the lamp and possible injury from flying fragments can occur if the lamp is mishandled. 1 Do not open the enclosure of either the Lamp House or the Power Supply Controller. Dangerous invisible infrared laser beams and hazardous voltages exist inside the Lamp House. Opening the chassis both voids the warranty and exposes the user to dangerous radiation and hazardous voltages. This AC cord supplied is for EQ-77 only. This AC cord cannot be used with other electrical equipment. The power shutdown mechanism of this laser unit is the AC power plug. Do not arrange the equipment that makes it difficult to connect or disconnect the AC power plug. WARNING: This unit emits ultraviolet (UV) radiation that is harmful to humans.

Should the interlock connection open during operation or standby, the source is immediately disabled, and all light output from the aperture ceases. 9 4. EQ-77 Setup 4.1. Connections Installation of the EQ-77 consists of connecting electrical, cooling fluid, and purge gas supplies, and connecting the Lamp House module to the user's equipment. Read "Installation Procedure" first before making any connections. 4.1.1 Electrical Power The EQ-77 requires 100 240 V~, 50/60 Hz input voltage. Power consumption is 350 W maximum during normal operation. Some OEM versions have higher current requirements. 4.1.2 Purge Gas It is strongly recommended that nitrogen purge gas is used during operation of the EQ-77 system. For optimal product performance, nitrogen gas purging of the EQ-77 system is required. If nitrogen purge gas is not used, shorter lifetime and faster output degradation (especially in the ultraviolet wavelength range) is expected. Product use without nitrogen purge gas will result in the buildup of ozone (from atmospheric oxygen) and attenuate the light output in the 220-280 nm band, as well as below 200 nm in the presence of atmospheric oxygen and water vapor. The purge port fitting is a push-to-connect type, sized for 4mm O.D. tubing. Clean and dry nitrogen from either a Dewar or research-grade N2 bottle is recommended. Do not use any other purge gas. Grade 4.8 or better gas purity is recommended to maintain cleanliness of the optics, and gas should be filtered to <5um. Supply pressure should be 20 psig (0.14 MPa). With a 20 psig inlet pressure, the EQ-77 will consume approximately 0.5 slm of flow. 4.1.3 Cooling Fluid Cooling fluid fittings are 1/4-inch Swagelok female. Coolant flow rate of at least 1 liter/minute is required. Inlet temperature should be between 18°C and 30°C Care must be taken when making connections to avoid damage to the fittings and tubing. Two wrenches must always be used one to hold the fitting body, and another to tighten the nut. See Figure 4. To make the connection: first insert tubing into the fitting and tighten the nut finger tight. Then tighten the nut 1-1/4 turns from the finger-tight position, using two wrenches as shown. 10 Hold the fitting body with one wrench. Tighten the nut with the other. Figure 4: Cooling fluid fittings 4.1.4 Optical Interface See Section 10.1 for dimensional drawings of the lamp. 4.1.5 Signal Connections The EQ-77 is controlled through the remote I/O connector. Section 10.3 gives the pin assignments and functions for this interface. Connect to the user's control system using a suitable cable. Mating connector is a standard high-density 15-pin d-sub male (for example, Amp part no. 748364-1 with contacts 1658670-2). Optionally, connect a model EQ-99-RC remote control module to the I/O connector using the supplied cable. The EQ-99-RC is shipped with an interlock jumper plug installed. To use the remote interlock function, connect a remote contact or solid-state switch across pins 1 and 3. Mating connector is a standard 3-pin mini-DIN, CUI Inc. part no. MD-30 or equivalent. See Figure 5 for pin connections. 11 PIN 1 PIN 3 Figure 1: EQ-99-RC Remote Control Rear Panel User I/O can be powered either by the EQ-77 internal isolated power supply, or an external supply. Section 10.5 shows connection schematics for both configurations. 4.1.6 Lamp House I/O The black 21-pin mixed D-sub cable is used to connect the Lamp House to the Power Supply Controller. This cable should be connected before AC power is applied to the Power Supply Controller. 4.1.7 RS-485 Interface Connector J2 is a standard 9-pin male d-sub. Mating connector is a standard 9-pin female d-sub (for example, AMP part no. 205203-3 with contacts 1-66504-0). See Section 10.4 for pin connections. Port settings are 9600 bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, no handshaking. Installation of the EQ-77 consists of connecting electrical, cooling fluid, and purge gas supplies, as well as connecting the Lamp House module to the user's equipment. Read "Installation Procedure" first before making any connections. 4.2. Installation Procedure 1. Place the Power Supply Controller on a stable surface. The Power Supply Controller must be placed within 2 meters of the Lamp House due to the length of the interconnecting cable. See drawing Section 10.1 for dimensional details. 2. Connect the Lamp House unit optical output to the user equipment (after removing the window cover). The beam should always be either directly coupled to a fiber optic cable, or enclosed in an appropriate beam pipe, tube, or enclosed space and purged with nitrogen. Operating the source without any output target or beam transport is not recommended, and may lead to unsafe operating conditions. Consult Energetiq for applications information and suggested configurations. The Lamp House should be mounted with the output window on the side and the lamp mounting surface oriented horizontally. The lamp has been factory aligned in this position. Mounting the lamp in a different orientation will cause the plasma position inside the bulb to shift slightly and may cause performance variations. 12 Setup the Lamp House unit with appropriate ultraviolet safety measures and laser light safety measures in place. It is recommended that any enclosure or aperture-blocking hardware utilize switches wired to the EQ-77 external interlock circuit. See Section 10.1 for dimensional drawings of the lamp. 3. Connect the black 21-pin mixed D-sub interconnect cable from the Power Supply Controller to the Lamp House. 4. Connect nitrogen purge gas to the Lamp House. Refer to "Connections" above. 5. Connect cooling fluid to the Lamp House. Refer to "Connections" above. 6. Connect user's control system to the I/O interface connector per Section 10.3. 7. Alternately, if using the EQ-99-RC Remote Control Module, place it on a clean rigid surface. Install the supplied 15-pin cable from the Power Supply Controller to the EQ-99-RC. 8. Connect AC input power source to the Controller Unit. The system is now ready to operate. 4.3. Chiller Information The system must be connected to a cooling system, see Section 8 for recommended chiller. 5. EQ-77 Operation 5.1. Startup Once the lamp is set up properly, verify that all personnel that will be in contact with the lamp system are aware of the potential hazards involved. It is the responsibility of the user to verify that the lamp is being used safely. This example assumes the use of the EQ-99-RC Remote Control Module to provide local control. If using a custom control system, substitute the appropriate digital input and output lines from Section 10.3 for the switches and LEDs described below. 1. With the EQ-99-RC Remote Control Module connected properly, review the status LEDs on the Power Supply Controller. The POWER ON LED should be lit, and neither the CONTROLLER FAULT nor LAMP MODULE FAULT LEDs should be lit. 2. Turn on the OPERATE Switch (place switch in UP position). 3. Within several seconds the LASER ON LED will light. Laser light is now present in the Lamp House. 4. In approximately 20-150 seconds the igniter will be turned on automatically and the plasma will ignite. The LAMP ON LED will be lit. The duration of the warm up time (20-150 seconds) will depend on the temperature and previous operating condition of the EQ-77. The EQ-77 will automatically detect when the unit has reached the optimum conditions for ignition. 5. If a bulb fails to ignite within 150 seconds after the OPERATE switch was activated, the LASER ON LED will go out, the LAMP FAULT LED will be lit, and LAMP ON LED will remain off. This is very unusual. However, if this occurs, turn the OPERATE switch to the OFF position (down) and begin at Step 1 again. If this occurs multiple times, contact Energetiq. 13 5.2. Stopping To turn the LAMP off, simply turn the OPERATE Switch to the OFF position. If the lamp will not be used for some time, the AC supply can be turned off. To minimize wear on the ignition components, it is best to avoid frequently starting and stopping the lamp. It is recommended to run the lamp continuously if long off-periods are not required. 6. Service Requirements There are no user-serviceable parts inside the EQ-77. For any problems encountered during operation, please contact Energetiq Technology for assistance. If there is a component failure, do not attempt to open the Controller or Lamp enclosure of the EQ77. Any service to the system must be performed only by factory authorized and trained technicians. To avoid injury, under no circumstances should the user open or modify the Lamp or Controller enclosure. 14 7. Troubleshooting Guide 7.1.

Serial Interface Commands The RS-485 serial interface is provided for user adjustment of laser operating power, in order to increase or decrease light output. The EQ-77 is shipped with the laser power set to a factory default value of 100% of full scale power. Laser power can be increased or decreased in increments of 0.5% of full scale. The following describes the serial commands and their functions. Commands consist of a single ASCII character, case-sensitive. This can be transmitted to the EQ-77 via a terminal emulation program, or the user's control system. Response from the EQ-77 will be a string of ASCII characters, format depending on the command issued. The following describes the serial commands and their functions. Command character U D Q F B ? Function Increases the present laser power setpoint by 0.5% of full scale Decreases the present laser power setpoint by 0.5% of full scale Queries the value of the present laser power setpoint (in % of full scale) Resets laser power setpoint to factory default value Saves present settings to flash memory. This command should be issued after the settings are at their desired values. If not, changes will be lost if power to the EQ-77 is interrupted. Displays a help menu listing the available commands Reply from EQ-77 Power = XX.X% Power = XX.X% Power = XX.X% Power = XX.X% Calibration data copied to FLASH Memory.
