UV synthetic silica glass optical member and reduction projection exposure apparatus using the same

摘要

This invention provides a synthetic silica glass optical member used together with light having a specific wavelength of 250 nm or less, in which the difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of transmittance [%/cm] per cm in thickness for the light in a predetermined direction within a plane perpendicular to the optical axis is 2.0%/cm or less.
