ABSTRACT:
A laser optical apparatus permits the use of a laser beam having a spectrum characteristic which substantially overlaps with an absorption band of oxygen, with a simple construction. Oxygen in a lens barrel of an optical system or a sealed space between lens barrels is absorbed by a deoxidation agent. Accordingly, even if a laser beam by an excimer laser using argon fluoride having a spectrum characteristic which substantially overlaps with the absorption of oxygen is passed through the optical system, the loss of laser energy by the absorption of oxygen, the generation of noxious gas and the swing due to the change of transmission are prevented.
