Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a multi-layer mirror (500) comprising a multi-layer stack of pairs of alternating layers of a first material (510) and silicon (520), the method comprising depositing a stack of pairs of alternating layers of the first material and layers of silicon, the stack being supported by a substrate and doping at least a first layer (540) of the first material with a dopant material.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a membrane transmissive to EUV radiation, which may be used as a pellicle or spectral filter in a lithographic apparatus. The membrane comprises one or more high doped regions wherein said membrane is doped with a dopant concentration greater than 10 17 cm -3 , and one or more regions with low (or no) doping. The membrane may have a main substrate having low doping and one or more additional layers, wherein said high doped regions are comprised within some or all of said additional layers.
