Soft x-ray reduction lithography using multilayer mirrors
Abstract
A soft x-ray lithograpy using multilayer mirrors for demagnifying optics and a reflecting mask has been designed and studied experimentally. In this system, a wavelength of 45–130 Å has been selected based on the optical characteristics, the exposed depth of the resist film, and the reflectivity of the multilayer mirror. To obtain a replication pattern resolution of 0.2 μm, the numerical aperture required is estimated to be greater than 0.0125 or 0.0325 for a wavelength of 50 or 130 Å, respectively. These values show that the multilayer optics using two mirrors can be realized to replicate a 0.2 μm pattern. The experiments were performed on the SR beamline BL-1 of the KEK-PF storage ring. The Schwarzschild demagnifying optics with a ring field were designed and fabricated. Demagnified exposure patterns of less than 0.5 μm have been obtained using a reflecting mask. The feasibility of the soft x-ray reduction method using multilayer mirrors has been confirmed. Furthermore, new telecentric optics are proposed to realize a practical reduction lithography system.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
