摘要 |
A mirror for use in a projection exposure apparatus is described. The mirror has a main surface extending beyond an outline of an optical surface of the main surface. The optical surface has a roughness of less than 1 nm rms, and the outline of the optical surface includes a portion where the main surface extends beyond the optical surface by less than 0.2 mm. Manufacturing the mirror may involve polishing the optical surface in regions of the main surface extending beyond the optical surface and removing material of the substrate carrying a portion of the surface extending beyond the optical surface.
