ABSTRACT:
A soft X-ray lithographic system for making a reduced copy of a pattern is described. The system contains a source of soft X-rays, a spherical concave reflector which convergently projects the soft X-rays from the emitting means through a pattern to be copied and a Fresnel zone plate which focuses and reduces the beam of soft X-rays convergently projected through the pattern.
