A kinematic optical mounting assembly secures an optical element to a base. A plurality of first bracket assemblies and second bracket assemblies are secured to the base and engage the optical element. Each first bracket assembly constrains the optical element from movement relative to the base in a direction substantially parallel to an axis of the base. Each second bracket assembly constrains the optical element from movement relative to the base in a direction substantially perpendicular to the axis of the base and substantially tangential to a periphery of the base. Six independent bracket assemblies constrain the optical element in six degrees of freedom to provide kinematic constraint without bending moments.

An assembly includes a holder (5), an optical component (1) transmitting radiation in a first region of ultraviolet (UV) radiation adhered to the holder by an adhesive (4), the adhesive being hardenable by radiation of a second region of ultraviolet radiation, a first layer (3) disposed between the optical component and the adhesive, and a second layer (2) for enhancing adhesion between the optical component and the first layer. The first layer is capable of transmitting radiation of the second region of UV radiation and obstructing to a high degree transmission of UV radiation of the first region by at least one of absorption and reflection. The optical component has a transmitting zone and the first layer is located outside of the transmitting zone. The second layer for enhancing adhesion between the optical component and the first layer is disposed between the first layer and the optical component. The assembly can be used, for example, in an illumination system and/or a projection system of a microlithography projection apparatus.

The invention relates to an optical resonator of a high-power CO2 gas laser. The optical resonator comprises a total reflecting mirror, a total reflecting mirror base, a total reflecting mirror gland cover, an output reflecting mirror, an output reflecting mirror base and an output reflecting mirror gland cover. The connection relationship is as follows: the optical resonator is installed and fixed on two end plates of a high-stability optical support and is fixedly connected with both ends of a chamber passage of a working gas circularly flowing in a closed mode through elastic adjustable bellows. The axle centers of the total reflecting mirror and the output reflecting mirror are adjusted through a calibration lighting source and are coaxial with the space optical axis 0 of a laser discharge chamber. After an energy storing charge and discharge circuit supplies electrical energy, one pair of discharge electrodes of the laser discharge chamber glow discharges evenly to a large area. After multiple times of actuating resonation through the total reflecting mirror and the output reflecting mirror, pulse signals repeat multiple times and become stronger and stronger to form laser light, and the laser light is transmitted through an output window so as to form the optical resonator of the laser. The invention has high stability and reliability and compact structure, and is applicable to high-power gas lasers and pulsed gas lasers.
