Abstract

Soft x-ray reflectivities up to a factor 104 larger than those of the best homogeneous materials have been obtained with multilayers coatings. Thickness control and boundary definition has been achieved on an atomic scale with amorphous films. We will review design, fabrication, performance and characterization of the coatings and discuss possibilities to extent these methods to the improvement of other material properties.
