    Abstract: A multilayer mirror is configured to reflect extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation while absorbing a second radiation having a wavelength substantially-longer than that of the EUV radiation. The mirror includes a plurality of layer pairs stacked on a substrate. Each layer pair comprises a first layer that includes a first material, and a second layer that includes a second material. The first layer is modified to reduce its contribution to reflection of the second radiation, compared with a simple layer of the same metal having the same thickness. Modifications can include doping with a third material in or around the metal layer to reduce its electric conductivity by chemical bonding or electron trapping, and/or splitting the metal layer into sub-layers with insulating layers. The number of layers in the stack is larger than known multilayer mirrors and may be tuned to achieve a minimum in IR reflection.
