Abstract
MOXTEK and its collaborators have developed technology for the fabrication of multilayer soft x-ray diffraction gratings. The diffraction gratings we will discuss here are planar, or lamellar amplitude gratings, with a structure similar to that shown in Figure 1 . The gratings we have fabricated and measured consist of a silicon (100) wafer substrate onto which we spin photo-resist. The photo-resist is patterned holographically and the substrate is then etched using reactive plasma processing techniques. The period, or pitch of these gratings Is 0.293 jim, and the grating active area can be as large as 6 cm x 6 cm. The linespace relationship is approximately 50-50. The substrates are etched until the grooves are about 1 200 A deep. This Is done to place the bottom of the grooves deep Into the substrate where It will not be able to scatter x-ray radiation efficiently. A typical substrate is shown in Figure 2.
