Frequently Asked Questions

The EQ-10HP is a compact, easy-to-use, reliable, and cost-effective EUV light source based on Energetiq’s proven Electrodeless Z-Pinch™ technology using Xenon gas.

The EQ-10HP has a performance of 20W into 2π using Xenon, up to 2.5 kHz pulse rate, small plasma size, and low debris. It also has a low cost of ownership with low Xenon flow rate, minimized consumable cost, and small footprint. It has proven reliability with patented Electrodeless Z-Pinch™ technology and is CE Mark and SEMI S2-0703 compliant.

The EQ-10HP is uniquely suited for metrology and research applications, including EUV Mask Inspection, EUV Metrology, EUV Resist Development, and EUV Microscopy.

The EQ-10HP delivers double the output EUV power and significantly higher brightness, making it suitable for imaging applications such as EUV mask inspection. It is capable of delivering up to 20 Watts of in-band EUV into 2π stera- dians and will run continuously at pulse repetition rates of up to 2.5 kHz.

Energetiq’s unique technology is based on a Z-pinch plasma, but it avoids electrodes entirely by using their patented Electrodeless Z-Pinch™ technology. This technology has been shown to be effective at producing EUV and SXR light.
