Abstract

See full text

A silica glass is provided for use in an optical system processing an excimer laser beam. The silica glass has a molecular hydrogen concentration of about 5.times.10.sup.18 molecules/cm.sup.3 or less and is substantially free from defects which become precursors susceptible to an one-photon absorption process and a two-photon absorption process upon irradiation of the excimer laser beam to the silica glass.
