Abstract

The object is to provide a multi-layer film reflection mirror capable of obtaining high reflectivity without degrading optical characteristics and without depending on incidence angle, and an X-ray exposure equipment thereof. The multi-layer film reflection mirror 50 is formed by stacking Mo layers 56 consisting of a material with large difference of refractive indexes between in soft X-ray region and in vacuum and Si layers 57 of a material with small difference, by turns on a stratum 55. The thickness ratio (Gamma) of Mo layer 56 to the total of Mo layer 56 and Si layer 57 has a distribution based on the incidence angle distribution of X-ray in the reflection mirror surface. By distributing Gamma corresponding to incidence angle distribution in the reflection mirror surface, maximum reflectivity can be obtained in the incidence angle of each point in the reflection mirror surface. Since the period is not necessary to be changed, the optical performance of the reflection mirror is not degraded.

Description of the invention (丨) (Detailed description of the invention) (Technical field to which the invention belongs) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) The present invention is an X-ray microscope, X-ray analysis device, Multilayer film reflectors used in X-ray optical systems such as X-ray exposure devices. In particular, an X-ray exposure apparatus using the multilayer film mirror [known technique] In recent years, with the development of miniaturization of semiconductor integrated circuits, in order to improve the resolution of optical systems that are limited by the diffraction limit of light The use of X-rays with shorter ultraviolet wavelengths (11 to 14 nm) than conventional UV ray lithography processes has been gradually developed (for example, see D. Tichenor, et al., SPIE 2437 (1995) 292 ). This technology has recently been called EUV (Extreme Ultraviolet) lithography, and it is expected to reach a resolution below 70 nm that was previously unavailable when light lithography was applied to light with a wavelength of I90 nm. The complex refractive index n 'of a substance in the wavelength region of X-rays is represented by n = l-5 -ik (5, K: complex number). The imaginary number k of this refractive index represents -X-ray absorption. Because 5, k is extremely small compared to 1, the refractive index in this region is very close to 1. As a result, conventional optical elements such as lenses cannot be used, and a reflective optical system is required. In the case of an oblique incidence optical system that uses oblique incidence on the reflecting surface = total reflection of X-rays, the 'stomach incidence angle is smaller than the critical angle of total reflection 0 c (at a wavelength of 10 nm or less) which is small (close to vertical) ), The reflectivity will be very small. Also 'here ^ Mission 4 _ The size of the paper is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) 561280 A7 _____ Β7 _____ 5. The angle of incidence of the invention description (^) indicates the normal and incidence of the incident surface The angle formed by the optical axis of light. Therefore, a multilayer film reflector is used, which is a layered material that has as high an amplitude reflectance as possible at the interface to set most reflecting surfaces (for example, tens to hundreds of layers). The thickness of each layer is adjusted according to the light interference theory The phases of the respective reflected waves are made coincident. Multilayer film mirrors are formed by laminating a substance with a large difference between the refractive index of the X-ray wavelength region and the refractive index of the vacuum (= 1) and a substance with a small difference on the substrate. The material of the multilayer film is a conventional combination of tungsten / carbon, molybdenum / carbon, and the like; and the film is formed by thin film formation techniques such as sputtering, vacuum evaporation, and CVD. Furthermore, the multilayer film reflector can also reflect X-rays that are incident on vertically, so the aberration of the optical system is smaller than that of an oblique incident optical system that adopts total reflection. In addition, the multilayer film mirror satisfies the Bragg-type 2dsin0 = nA in order to make the phases of the reflected waves coincide (d represents the long period of the multilayer film, Θ represents the oblique incidence angle, 7Γ / 2 represents the incident angle, and λ represents the wavelength of X-rays) In this case, since there is a wavelength dependency that reflects X-rays to a considerable degree, it is necessary to carefully select each factor satisfying the formula. When molybdenum (Mo) / silicon (Si) is used as the multilayer film, as is well known, the long wavelength side of the L absorption end of silicon having a wavelength of 12.6 nm has high reflectance. Therefore, at a wavelength of about 13 nm, it is relatively easy to produce a multilayer film reflector with a high reflectance of 60% or more under direct incidence (incidence angle 0 °). This type of mirror with / Si multilayer film is called £ uVL (Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography), and it can also be applied to the use of soft X-rays with a 5 P-scale scale applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 Mm) I —- • ---------------- (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) Today 0 ·. Line 561280 A7 __B7 _ 5. Description of the invention ( 4) Small projection lithography technology. [Questions to be Solved by the Invention] (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) Mo / Si multilayer film mirrors have the high reflectance as described above, but, as shown by the Bragg formula, In addition to wavelength dependence, it also has incident angle dependence. Reflectors for illumination optical systems or projection optical systems for lithography have different incidence angles of light rays at various points on the substrate. The difference in incidence angle ranges from a few degrees to more than ten degrees. Therefore, 'if a multilayer film of the same thickness is formed on the entire surface of the substrate, a difference in reflectance will occur on the surface of the substrate due to the difference in the angle of incidence. The one shown in FIG. 6 is a graph showing the relationship between the reflectance and the reflection angle. This diagram is a theoretical representation of the incident angle and reflectance at a period of 69A, a number of layers of 50 layers, and an incident light wavelength of 13.36nm. The horizontal axis is the incident angle, and the vertical axis is the reflectivity. The solid line indicates s polarization, and the dotted line indicates no polarization. In the figure, the layer-to-layer combination is a combination of a layer of adjacent Mo layers and a layer of Si layers in a Mo / Si multilayer film, and the thickness of each layer in Table 1 is as long as the period is long. The ratio 的 of the thickness of the Mo layer to the period length is represented by Γ. In this multilayer film, Γ is 0.35 and is constant. As shown in FIG. 6, the reflectance changes with the incident angle. Although the reflectance at an incident angle of 0 ° is about 74%, the incident angle is 10. The reflectance at this time is more than 60%, and the decrease in reflectivity is more than 10%. In view of this, a conventional method is to adjust the film thickness distribution of the multilayer film so that the incident angle of light of a specific wavelength at each point on the surface has a high reflectivity. As shown in Figure 7, when the wavelength of the incident light is 13.36nm, the size of the reflected paper is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) '' 561280 A7 ____B7__ V. Description of the invention (W) The relationship between the period length and the film thickness (period length X layer logarithm) relative to the incident angle with the highest angle of incidence. The horizontal axis is the angle of incidence, the vertical axis on the left is the cycle length, and the vertical axis on the right is the film thickness. Γ is 0.35. It can be seen from Fig. 7 'that the incident angle is zero. When its reflectivity reaches the highest, the period of 値 is about 68.26A and the film thickness is about 3413A; when the incident angle is 10. When its reflectivity reaches the highest value, the period is about 69.31 people and the film thickness is about 3466 people. Therefore, if the reflectivity is to be the highest among the incident angles, if the incident angle is 10 °, the period must be longer than the incident angle of 0 ° by about 1A. Mo / Si multilayer films are generally 50 pairs. As the cycle length increases, the thickness difference of the multilayer films can reach 4.7nm. Therefore, the surface shape of the precision-processed optical system (substrate) has a change amount of this degree. The amount of change at this level is already higher than the allowable number of wavefront aberrations, and therefore it is a cause of deterioration of optical characteristics. The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and an object thereof is to provide a multilayer film reflector with high reflectivity that does not deteriorate in optical characteristics and does not depend on an incident angle, and an X-ray exposure using the multilayer film reflector. Device. [Means to solve the problem] In order to solve the above problems, the multilayer film mirror of the present invention is a first layer composed of a substance having a large difference between a refractive index and a vacuum refractive index in a soft X-ray region, a refractive index and The second layer composed of a substance with a small difference in vacuum refractive index is obtained by alternately stacking the substrate on the substrate; it is characterized in that the ratio of the thickness of the first layer to the total thickness of the first layer and the second layer is within the reflection mirror surface With distribution. 7 This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) ----------------- (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Order-.line 561280 A7 __B7 _ 5. Description of the invention (ί) In the present invention, the distribution, the angle of incidence of X-rays in the mirror surface is reduced by a large ratio, which is desirable. By making the ratio of the thickness of the first layer to the total thickness of the first layer and the thickness of the second layer (Γ) distributed in the reflecting mirror surface corresponding to the incidence angle distribution, the incident angle at each point in the reflecting mirror surface can be distributed. Get maximum reflectivity. At this time, since the period need not be changed, the optical performance of the mirror is not deteriorated. In the present invention, when the distribution angle of the X-rays in the mirror surface is large, it is desirable to reduce the ratio. Generally, the incident angle on the outer peripheral side is larger than the center side of the substrate. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 9, on the outer peripheral side with a larger incident angle, the ratio of the thickness of the first layer to the total thickness of the first layer and the thickness of the second layer (Γ) can be reduced on the outer peripheral side. High reflectivity. In the present invention, the first layer is preferably a single layer composed of aluminum (Mo) or a plurality of layers laminated in the order of molybdenum, ruthenium (Ru), and molybdenum. The second layer is preferably a layer made of silicon (Si). This makes it possible to obtain a multi-layered mirror with low cost, excellent durability, and a uniform phase of the reflection wave surface. The exposure device of the present invention includes: an X-ray light source for generating X-rays; an illumination optical system for directing X-rays from the X-ray light source to a photomask; and a projection optical system for directing X-rays from the above The photomask is guided to the photosensitive substrate; the pattern of the photomask is transferred to the photoconductive substrate; characterized in that at least one of the illumination optical system, the photomask and the projection optical system is provided with a multilayer film reflector; This multilayer film mirror is a 8-sheet paper with a large gap between the refractive index in the soft X-ray area and the vacuum refractive index.

Description of the invention (b) The first layer made of a substance, and the second layer made of a substance with a small difference between the refractive index and the vacuum refractive index are obtained by alternately stacking the substrate, and the thickness of the first layer is The ratio of the thickness of the first layer to the total thickness of the second layer has a distribution in the mirror surface. In the mirror surface, the maximum reflectance can be obtained before the period of the multilayer film is not changed. Therefore, the deterioration of optical characteristics caused by the film thickness distribution generated when the period length distribution correction is performed can be provided, and a high-performance X-ray exposure device. [Embodiment of the invention] The multilayer film reflector uses the above-mentioned Bragg formula, and once the period is changed, the wavelength at which the reflectance reaches the highest value also changes. On the other hand, because the refractive indices of the materials constituting the multilayer film are different from each other, even if the period is kept constant and Γ is changed, the wavelength at which the reflectance reaches the highest value will still change. What is shown in FIG. 8 is a graph showing the relationship between the incident wavelength and the reflectance. The figure shows the Mo / Si multilayer film with a period of 69A, and its reflectance to the wavelength of incident light when the incident angle is 0 °. The horizontal axis is the wavelength and the vertical axis is the reflectivity. In addition, each line in the figure indicates that Γ is changed on a 0.05 scale from 0.3 to 0.5. It can be seen from this figure that by changing the length of the fixed period and changing Γ, the wavelength at which the reflectance reaches the highest value also changes. That is, when Γ is 0.5, the reflectance at the wavelength near 13.4 nm is about 72%, and when Γ is 0.3, the reflectance at the wavelength near 13.6 is about 72%. Therefore, even if the period of the fixed multilayer film is changed and Γ 値 is changed, the wavelength at which the reflectance corresponding to the fixed incident angle reaches the maximum value will be changed. As a result, the change period is 9 times longer. ) A4 size (210 X 297 mm) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page)

Explanation of the invention (1) The situation has the same result. On the other hand, it can be seen from FIG. 7 that when the incident wavelength is fixed, once the period is changed, the incident angle at which the reflectance reaches the highest value changes. Therefore, even if the fixed period is long and Γ is changed, the incident angle at which the reflectance corresponding to the fixed incident wavelength reaches the highest value will be changed. As long as this feature is used, even if the period of the multilayer film is kept the same, by selecting Γ, the angle of incidence of each point in the reflecting mirror surface will be the angle of maximum reflectance corresponding to a fixed incident wavelength. The figure shown in Fig. 9 shows the relative graph of the reflectance and the angle of incidence when Γ 値 is changed. The horizontal axis is the angle of incidence and the vertical axis is the reflectivity. In this figure, the light is incident on a Mo / Si multilayer film with a period of 69A and a layer number of 50 and a wavelength of 13.36mn. Each line in the figure indicates the one established after changing Γ 値. It can be seen from this figure that by changing Γ 値, the angle of incidence that maximizes the reflectance 値 can be changed. That is, when Γ is 0.5, the angle of incidence with the highest reflectance 値 is about 4 °, but when Γ is 0.3, it is about 10 °. As Γ 値 decreases, the angle of incidence with the highest reflectance 则Increasing from 0 °. Therefore, Γ 値, which maximizes the reflectance, can be selected according to the incident angle, thereby obtaining the quotient reflectance. For example, when the incident angle is between 0 ° and 5 °, Γ = 0.45 can get the highest reflectance; between 5 ° and 8 °, Γ = 0.4 can get the highest reflectance; between 8 ° and 10 °, Γ = 0.35 gives the highest reflectivity. Furthermore, it is preferable to control Γ in the range of 0.3 to 0.5 to maintain the local reflectance at the time when the reflectance is the best quotient. 10 Wood paper size applies to ^ National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) " " '(Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page)

Description of the invention (Z) (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) Also, although Γ 値 in this figure is changed on a scale of 0.05, however, if you want to optimize, if you can make It is more preferable that Γ 値 changes continuously. As described above, when the optimal Γ 値 is to be selected, the envelope of the high reflectance side of the curve in FIG. 9 is extended so that the incident angle corresponds to Γ 値. With this, when the wavelength of the incident light is 13.6nm and the period is maintained at 69A, the reflectance 値 can be changed between about 72.5% and about 74% in the range of the incident angle of 0 ° to 10 °, and The degree of decrease in reflectivity was controlled to 1%. In order to keep the cycle length of the multilayer film constant and change Γ 値, there are methods of simultaneously changing the film thickness distribution of the Mo layer itself and the film thickness distribution of the Si layer itself. In the past, the correction of the film thickness distribution is to maintain the Γ at a condition where a high reflectance can be obtained, so as to perform a desired distribution on the overall film thickness. The method includes a method of controlling the distribution of scattered particles by changing the sputtering conditions or the film forming conditions such as the inclination angle of the film-forming substrate (reflector) in the sputtering method; or a film that controls the distribution of scattered particles by a shielding plate. Method for thick correction mask. This method can also be applied to the method for distributing Γ in the present invention. FIG. 1 is a structural diagram of a multilayer film reflector according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1 (A) is a schematic cross-sectional view of the overall structure, and (B) is a cross-section obtained by horizontalizing any one layer pair of the multilayer film reflector. Illustration. The one shown in Fig. 2 is an overall configuration diagram of an X-ray exposure apparatus equipped with the multilayer film mirror of Fig. 1. First, the outline of the X-ray exposure apparatus will be described with reference to FIG. 2. Such an X-ray exposure apparatus uses light in a soft X-ray region (hereinafter referred to as EUV light) having a wavelength of about 13 nm as illumination light for exposure, and performs an exposure operation in a step-and-scan method. 11 The size of this paper is in accordance with the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) 561280 A7 ____B7__ V. Description of the invention (1) -------------- Installation --- ( (Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this page.) The top layer of the X-ray exposure device 1 is equipped with a laser light source 3. The laser light source 3 has a function of supplying laser light having a wavelength ranging from infrared to visible light, and a semiconductor laser can be used such as a YAG laser or an excimer laser. The laser light ' emitted from the laser light source 3 is condensed ' by the concentrating optical system 5 and then reaches the laser plasma light source 7 arranged at the lower portion. The laser plasma light source 7 'can efficiently generate X-rays having a wavelength of around 13mn. -Linear plasma light source 7 is equipped with a nozzle (not shown) to emit xenon gas. The emitted xenon gas receives laser light of high illuminance at the laser plasma light source 7. The energy of the high-intensity laser light causes the xenon gas to turn to a high temperature, but it is excited into a plasma state and emits EUV light when it transitions to a low-energy state. Because EUV light has a low permeability to the atmosphere, its optical path is covered by a reaction chamber (vacuum chamber) 9 to block external air. In addition, since the nozzle emitting xenon gas generates debds, it is necessary to set up other reaction chambers in addition to the reaction chamber 9. On the upper end of the laser plasma light source 7, a coated Mo / Si layer multilayer film is arranged. The rotating parabolic mirror 11 enters the parabolic mirror 11 from the X-rays radiated from the laser plasma light source 7 and reflects only the X-rays having a wavelength of about 13 nm in parallel toward the lower side of the exposure device 1. Below the rotating parabolic mirror 11, a visible light blocking X-ray transmission filter 13 made of Be (beryllium) having a thickness of 0.15 nm is arranged. For the X-rays reflected from the parabolic mirror 11, only the required X-rays of 13 nm have to pass through the transmission filter 13. The vicinity of the penetration filter 13 is covered by the reaction chamber 15 to block external air. 12 Wood paper scale is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) 561280 A7 ___-____ B7 _ _ 5. Description of the invention (I °) --------------- -(Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page.) Below the penetration filter 13, an exposure reaction chamber 33 is set. Below the penetration filter π in the exposure reaction chamber 33, an illumination optical system 17 ° is provided. The illumination learning system 17 'is composed of a reflector of a condenser system and a reflector of a compound eye optical system. The X-rays incident on the filter 13 are adjusted in an arc shape, and irradiated toward the left side of the figure. On the left side of the figure of the illumination optical system 17, an X-ray mirror 19 is arranged. The X-ray reflecting mirror 19 has a concave circular rotating parabolic mirror on a reflecting surface 19a on the right side of the figure, and maintains a vertical shape by a holding member. The X-ray reflecting mirror 19 has a reflecting surface 19a made of a quartz substrate processed with high accuracy. On the reflecting surface 19a, a multilayer film of Mo and Si having high reflectance to X-rays having a wavelength of 13 nm is formed. In addition, when using X-rays with a wavelength of 10 to 15 nm, it can also be obtained by combining materials such as Ru (ruthenium) and Rh (germanium) with materials such as Si, Be (beryllium), B4C (carbon tetraboride), and the like. Multilayer film. The right-hand X-ray mirror 19 is provided with an optical path turning mirror 21 diagonally. Above the optical path turning mirror 21, the reflective surface of the reflective mask 23 is arranged downward and horizontally. The X-rays emitted from the illumination optical system 17 are reflected and condensed by the X-ray mirror 19, and then transmitted through the optical path turning mirror 21 to reach the reflection surface of the reflective mask 23. The reflective surface of the reflective mask 23 is also formed with a reflective film composed of a multilayer film. This reflective film has a mask pattern corresponding to the pattern to be transferred on the wafer 29. A photomask stage 25 shown in the figure is fixed above the reflective photomask 23. The mask stage 25 can be moved at least in the Y direction ', and X-rays reflected from the light path turning mirror 21 are sequentially irradiated onto the mask 23. Below the reflective mask 23, a projection optical system is arranged in order. 13 The paper size is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) 561280 A7 _ B7____ 5. Description of the invention (, \)- --------------- (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) 27. Wafer 29. The projection optical system 27 is composed of a plurality of mirrors, etc., and reduces the pattern on the reflective light beam 23 at a specific reduction ratio (for example, 1/4), and then forms an image on the wafer 29. The wafer 29 is fixed by being held by a wafer stage 31 that can be moved in the XYZ direction. The exposure reaction chamber 33 is connected to a pre-exhaust chamber 37 (load interlocking vacuum reaction chamber) through a smell valve 35. The pre-exhaust chamber 37 is connected to a vacuum pump 39. The pre-exhaust chamber 37 is evacuated by the operation of the vacuum pump 39. When the line is exposed, the illumination optical system 17 is used to illuminate the EUV light in a reflective type. The reflecting surface of the photomask 23. At this time, the reflective mask 23 and the wafer 29 are scanned synchronously with the reflective projection optical system 27 at a specific speed ratio determined by the reduction ratio of the projection optical system. Thereby, the entire circuit pattern of the reflective mask 23 is transferred to a plurality of exposed areas on the wafer 29 in a step-and-scan manner. In addition, the wafer of wafer 29 is 25 × 25nm square, and the 1C pattern of 0.07 // mL / S can be exposed on the photoresist. Next, the structure of a multilayer film reflector according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. The multilayer film mirror of the present invention is a rotating parabolic mirror 19 or an X-ray mirror 11 used in the X-ray exposure apparatus of Fig. 2. The multilayer film reflecting mirror 50 is a layer of a Mo / Si multilayer film having a period of 69A with the Mo layer 56 and the Si layer 57 as a pair, and 50 layers are laminated on the substrate 55 having a concave surface. The angle of incidence of the light incident on the multilayer film reflector 50 is 0 ° to 5 ° in the area 51 in the figure; in the area 52 14 the size of the paper is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) ) 561280 A7 __—____ B7 5. In the description of the invention (,), it is 5 ° to 8 °; in area 53, it is 8. To 10. . The thickness design of the Mo layer 56 and Si layer 57 in one layer of this multilayer film is such that Γ 値 in the area 51 is 0.45, Γ 値 in the area 52 is 0.4, and Γ 値 in the area 53 Is 0.3. These Γ 値 can be obtained from the above-mentioned FIG. 9. Because the multilayer film is formed by the above method, the attenuation of the reflectance can be controlled at about 1% between the incidence angle of 0 ° and 10 °. In addition, for the production of such a multilayer film, individual scattered particle correction plates for Mo and Si can be used in the formation of each layer by the ion sputtering method. Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of another embodiment of the present invention in which any one of a pair of multilayer mirrors is horizontalized. The multilayer film of this example also has the same structure as the multilayer film of FIG. 1. The incident angle of the light incident on the multilayer film reflector is a continuous distribution from 0 ° to 10 ° from the center of the substrate toward the outer periphery. The thickness of the Mo layer 56 and the Si layer 57 is designed so that Γ 对 is continuously distributed from the center of the substrate toward the outer periphery from 0.45 to 0.35 in one layer of such a multilayer film. The selection of Γ 値 at each point on the substrate must be selected so as to have the highest reflectance at the incident angle of each point. By forming a multilayer film by this method, the incident angle range can be from 0. When the temperature is between 10 ° and 10 °, the attenuation of the reflectivity is controlled to about 1%. In addition, in the production of such a multilayer film, individual scattered particle correction plates for Mo and Si can be used for forming each layer by the ion sputtering method. 15 The size of the paper is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) Install -δ ·, line 561280 A7 ___B7___ V. Description of the invention (A) , ---------------- (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) The one shown in Figure 4 is the multilayer film reflector of another embodiment of the present invention. Structure diagram, (A) shows the cross-section of the overall structure is not intended. (B) shows a cross-sectional view obtained by horizontalizing any layer pair of this multilayer film reflector. The multilayer film mirror 80 of this example also has the same structure as the multilayer film mirror of FIG. 1, and is a layer in which a Mo layer 86 and a Si layer 87 are alternately laminated on a substrate 85. The angle of incidence of the light incident on the multilayer film reflector 80 is distributed from the center of the substrate 85 to the outer periphery in a wide range of 0 ° to 20 °. The incidence angle in the region 81 is 0 ° and the incidence angle in the region 82 is Above 10 °. • Line In a 1-layer pair of this multilayer film, the angle of incidence is 0 ° to. The region 81 of γ is the same as the multilayer film of FIG. 3, and is continuously distributed from the center to the periphery from 0.45 to 0.35 as the thickness design method of the Mo layer 86 and the Si layer 87. If Γ 値 is further reduced for an area 82 with an incident angle greater than 10 °, Γ 値 will be below 0.35, resulting in a decrease in reflectance. Therefore, in the region 82 where the incident angle is large, correction is performed based on the conventional film thickness change. That is, in this region, the change cycle is long with Γ 値 being 0.35. As described above, when the range of incident angles is wide and there is a region that cannot be corresponded only by the distribution of Γ 値, a part of the conventional method can be implemented to modify the film thickness distribution. In this case, since the variation amount of the film thickness distribution is smaller than when the film thickness distribution correction is performed on the entire surface in the past, deterioration of optical performance can be suppressed. For the production of such a multilayer film, individual distribution correction plates for Mo and Si can be used for forming each layer by the ion sputtering method. At this time, 16 paper sizes can be applied to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) 561280 A7 __ B7_ V. Description of the invention (K) Borrow a distribution correction board to perform Γ 値 distribution and Film thickness distribution. ---------------- (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) The one shown in Figure 5 is the structure of a multilayer film reflector according to another embodiment of the present invention. The figure is a cross-sectional view obtained by horizontalizing any pair of layers of a multilayer film reflector. The multilayer film mirror 90 of this example also has the same structure as the multilayer film mirror of FIG. 1, and is a layer in which a Mo layer 96 and a Si layer 97 are laminated. In the one-layer pair of the multilayer film, Γ 値 is continuously changed from the center of the substrate to the periphery, and the cycle length is also continuously changed. In this application example, compared with the conventional method of correcting the film thickness distribution only by changing the period of the entire surface, the reflectance is slightly reduced, but it can control the optical performance so as not to cause ordinary optical performance degradation. Phenomenon. This example is quite practical compared with the multilayer film mirror of Fig. 4. -As mentioned above, the method of obtaining maximum reflectance by changing Γ 値 by keeping the period longer than fixed 値 is particularly suitable for the range of incident angles from 0 ° to (10 °. When the incident angle is greater than 10 °, By changing the length of the period, a multilayer film with a Γ 値 as high as 0.4 to 0.45 when approaching direct incidence (incidence angle of 0 °) and a distance farther from normal incidence is reduced to 0.3 to 0.35. [Effect of the Invention] By It is obvious from the above description that according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a multilayer film reflector that can obtain high reflectance without changing the long period of the multilayer film. Furthermore, by using such a multilayer film reflector, It can provide an X-ray exposure device that can obtain high reflectivity without deteriorating optical performance.
