(5) Using the spacer thick film 4 in which the opening 6 is formed as a mask, the chromium film 41 is removed with an etching solution based on ceric ammonium nitrate to partially expose the gold of the base thin film 3.

Thereafter, by removing the auxiliary thin film 41, the same X-ray exposure mask as that obtained through the normal manufacturing process can be obtained. The etching rate of chromium used as the auxiliary thin film is much lower than the etching rate of gold, which is the base thin film, so for the same overetching time, the amount of chromium deposited in the openings of the spacer thick film is smaller than in the conventional case. And much less. Therefore, even when an absorber pattern is formed by electroplating, no bulging occurs around the opening, and a good absorber pattern can be formed.
