Abstract
In this paper we present the status of a joint development programme o n soft x-ray projection lithography (SXPL) integrating work on high br ightness laser plasma sources. fabrication of multilayer x-ray mirrors . and patterning of reflection masks. We are in the process of optimiz ation of a laser-plasma x-ray source and measured the conversion-effic iency of laser light into x-rays. Furthermore we present results of et ching patterns in x-ray reflection masks and we discuss improved depos ition techniques to produce multilayer coatings with enhanced reflecti vity.
