Abstract

The use of coherent radiation from undulator beamlines has been used to directly measure the real and imaginary parts of the index of refraction of several metals1. Here we extend the same interferometric technique to slightly higher energies, and measure the indices of refraction of silicon and ruthenium, essential materials for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography. Both materials are tested at-wavelength (13.4 nm.) Silicon is also measured about its L2 (99.8 eV) and L3 (99.2 eV) absorption edges. This measurement technique is currently being expanded further to soft X-ray wavelengths.
