Abstract

At Rutherford Appleton Laboratory(RAL), a high-repetition rate ps exicmer laser-plasma x-ray source has been developed for x-ray lithography with a calibrated output of up to 1 watt X-ray average power at 1nm wavelength. In a previous reports this compact x-ray source was used to print 0.18$\mu$m lines for a gate on Si-FET devices and deep three-dimensional structure with 100$\mu$m length, 25$\mu$m width, and 48 $\mu$m depth for a nanotechnology. The deep X-ray lithography is called as LIGA thchnology and getting a wide interest as a new technology for a nano-device. In this report all this works are summarized.
