An optical element (11) has an optical surface (20) with a diffraction structure (21). The optical surface (20) is curved such that a distance-to-diameter ratio between a distance A between a deepest point (T) and a highest point (H) and a largest diameter D is greater than 1/10. When producing the optical element (11), firstly a raw optical element having a raw optical surface to be provided with the diffraction structure (21) is provided. The raw optical surface is then coated with a photoresist with the aid of an isotropic deposition method and the photoresist is exposed and then developed. This results in a production method for an optical element with an optical surface having a diffraction structure, which method satisfies stringent requirements made of a structure accuracy when producing the diffraction structure.

According to the present disclosure, there is provided a device (2) and a method for measuring a wavelength for a laser device. The device (2) for measuring a wavelength for a laser device includes: a first optical path assembly and a second optical path assembly. The first optical path assembly and the second optical path assembly constitute a laser wavelength measurement optical path. The second optical path assembly includes: an FP etalon assembly (11) and an optical classifier (13). The homogenized laser beam passes through the FP etalon assembly (11) to generate an interference fringe. The optical classifier (13) is arranged after the FP etalon assembly (11) in the laser wavelength measurement optical path, and configured to deflect the laser beam passing through the FP etalon assembly (11). The FP etalon assembly (11) allows two FP etalons (FP1, FP2) to share the same optical path for an interference imaging, and therefore a compact structure having a small volume, a simple design, and a high stability are achieved. In cooperation with the optical classifier (13), a precise measurement for a laser wavelength may be achieved, and at the same time a wavelength measurement range is large. It is suitable for an online measurement for a laser wavelength and a corresponding closed-loop control feedback.

A first wavelength value of the received light beam is determined based on the spatial information related to the first fringe and an initial value of the calibration parameter. A second wavelength value of the received light beam is determined based on the spatial information related to the second fringe and the initial value of the calibration parameter. The first wavelength value and the second wavelength value are compared to determine a measurement error value.

An EUV collector has a reflection surface with a basic mirror shape of a spherical section. A diffraction grating for EUV used light is applied to the reflection surface. The diffraction grating is designed so that the EUV used light, which emanates from a sphere center of the spherical section, is diffracted by the diffraction grating toward a collection region. The collection region is spatially spaced apart from the sphere center. This creates an EUV collector in which an effective separation between EUV used light, which is to be collected with the aid of the collector, and extraneous light having a wavelength that differs from a used light wavelength is made possible.
