Discharge electrodes and light source device
An extreme ultraviolet light source device includes a pair of disk-shaped discharge electrodes which face each other with their peripheral portions being spaced from each other, a pulsed power supply unit for supplying pulsed power to the discharge electrodes, a raw material supply unit for supplying onto the discharge electrodes raw materials that emit extreme ultraviolet light, and an energy beam irradiation unit for irradiating the raw materials on curved surfaces of the discharge electrodes with an energy beam to vaporize the raw materials. At least one of the paired discharge electrodes has a tapered surface at a peripheral portion of at least one of two circular surfaces thereof. The tapered surface inclines radially outward such that the thickness of the discharge electrode decreases in the radially outward direction.
