摘要

Fresnel zone plates (FZPs) for soft X-ray microscopy with an energy range of 284 eV to 540 eV are designed and fabricated in a simple method. An adequate aspect ratio of the resist mold for electroplating was obtained by the proximity effect correction technology for an incident electron beam on a single thick layer resist. Without additional complicated reactive ion etching, a sufficient electro plating mold for nickel structures was fabricated. The overall fabrication procedures which involve a mix-and-match overlay technique for electron beam lithography and an optic exposure system that centers the membrane on the nanostructures, and hybrid silicon etching technology in junction with deep anisotropy and a KOH wet method in order to release the backside Si substrates of the Si3N4 membranes with no deformation of FZPs are introduced. High quality nanostructures with minimum outermost zone widths of 50 nm and diameters of 120 mu m were fabricated with simplified fabrication process and with cost-effective.
