Research Abstract |
A new approach to the fabrication of attosecond soft X ray multilayer mirrors on an atomic scale at soft X ray wavelengths is proposed to overcome serious problems regarding scattering loss at the rough surface and interface of the multilayer. In this research project, novel approaches utilizing atomic layer epitaxy to the fabrication of ZnO/TiO2 oxide superlattice multilayer film mirror on a sapphire substrate for soft X ray wavelengths was studied. We demonstrated high reflectance and that phase could control soft X ray frequency precisely by a multiplex period in a window soft X ray domain of the so-called "water window" that ZnO/TiO2 oxide superstructure provided large frequency band.
