研究目的
Investigating the angular and spectral bandwidth of EUV multilayers near spacer material absorption edges, particularly for systems like Mo/Si, Mo/Be, Ru/Si, Ru/B, and La/B, to understand their behavior and implications for EUV imaging systems using narrowband sources like free electron lasers.
研究成果
The angular bandwidth of EUV multilayers increases near spacer absorption edges, contrary to the decrease in spectral bandwidth, due to changing optical constants. This has implications for improving throughput and resolution in EUV imaging systems using narrowband sources like FELs.
研究不足
The study is limited to specific multilayer systems and wavelengths; experimental measurements had uncertainties, and the effect of interface roughness and silicide formation was not fully accounted for. Optical constants from databases may not perfectly match deposited materials.
