Abstract
With synchrotron radiation (SuperACO) and a commercial stepper (Karl S uss XRS200), the proximity x-ray lithography is used for quick replica tion of high resolution patterns. The physical limits of the resolutio n are evaluated, taking into account both effects of near-field diffra ction and photoelectrons. All experimental ingredients are described, including the achievements in 50nm pattern replication and also in 20n m linewidth mask fabrication. Data are compared to the theoretical pre dictions, showing a reasonable agreement under close proximity conditi ons.
