摘要:
A mirror (1a; 1a′; 1b; 1b′; 1c; 1c′) with a substrate (S) and a layer arrangement configured such that light (32) having a wavelength below 250 nm and incident on the mirror at at least an angle of incidence of between 0° and 30° is reflected with more than 20% of its intensity. The layer arrangement has at least one surface layer system (P′″) having a periodic sequence of at least two periods (P3) of individual layers, wherein the periods (P3) include a high refractive index layer (H′″) and a low refractive index layer (L′″). The layer arrangement has at least one graphine layer. Use of graphene (G, SPL, B) on optical elements reduces surface roughness to below 0.1 nm rms HSFR and/or protects the EUV element against a radiation-induced volume change of more than 1%. Graphene is also employed as a barrier layer to prevent layer interdiffusion.
摘要:
A projection illumination system with a plurality of optical components (29, 32) includes an interferometer arrangement (37) whose components are arranged outside a projection beam path (17) of the projection illumination system. Measurement radiation of the interferometer arrangement strikes a surface (35) of the optical component (29) to be measured under a large angle of incidence (α). Actuators (83, 87) of the projection illumination system can be actuated as a function of a measurement radiation intensity distribution detected using the interferometer arrangement in order to change imaging characteristics of the projection illumination system and to keep them stable in particular also with respect to drifting.

Measuring a shape of an optical surface (14) of a test object (12) includes: providing an interferometric measuring device (16) generating a measurement wave (18); arranging the measuring device (16) and the test object (12) consecutively at different measurement positions relative to each other, such that different regions (20) of the optical surface (14) are illuminated by the measurement wave (18); measuring positional coordinates of the measuring device (16) at the different measurement positions in relation to the test object (12); obtaining surface region measurements by interferometrically measuring the wavefront of the measurement wave (18) after interaction with the respective region (20) of the optical surface (14) using the measuring device (16) in each of the measurement positions; and determining the actual shape of the optical surface (14) by computationally combining the sub-surface measurements based on the measured positional coordinates of the measuring device (16) at each of the measurement positions.
