    摘要: A deflection mirror is disposed before an X-ray mask so as to reflect an X-ray beam and to project it to the X-ray mask. The X-ray mask is disposed opposed to a wafer with a distance D therebetween, and the X-ray beam reflected by the X-ray mask is projected onto the wafer through a reduction projection optical system. The deflecting mirror is disposed, in an example, at a position satisfying a relation D>L>d/(tan .delta.1+tan .delta.2) where L is the distance from the X-ray mask to an edge of the deflection mirror closer to the path of the X-ray beam reflected by the X-ray mask, d is the width of irradiation of the X-ray beam upon the X-ray mask, and .delta.1 and .delta.2 are incidence angles of the X-ray beam at upper and lower edges of the irradiation width d, respectively, upon the X-ray mask. This assures a compact structure wherein, even when a wafer of a large diameter is used, illumination light to the mask is not intercepted.

    摘要: An X-ray projection exposure apparatus includes a mask chuck, a wafer chuck, an X-ray illuminating system, and an X-ray projection system. The masks chuck holds a reflection X-ray mask having a mask pattern thereon. The wafer chuck holds a wafer onto which the mask pattern is transferred. The X-ray illuminating system illuminates the reflection X-ray mask, held by the mask chuck, with X-rays. The X-ray projection optical system projects the mask pattern of the reflection X-ray mask onto the wafer held by the wafer chuck with a predetermined magnification. The mask chuck includes a mechanism for generating static electricity for attracting and holding the reflection X-ray mask by an electrostatic force. The invention also includes a device manufacturing method using such an X-ray projection exposure apparatus to transfer a mask pattern onto the wafer using the X-ray projection exposure apparatus.

    摘要: A reflection type X-ray mask structure includes an X-ray absorptive material pattern, an X-ray reflective multilayered film for reflecting X-rays, and a supporting substrate for supporting the X-ray reflective multilayered film, wherein an X-ray reflectivity of a portion other than a pattern region is lower than that of the pattern region. With this reflection type X-ray mask structure, step-and-repeat exposure or step-and-scan exposure with a semiconductor exposure apparatus does not cause undesirable multiple exposure at a boundary portion between juxtaposed exposure regions on a wafer.
