Abstract
An x-ray lithography mask including a thick silicon peripheral rib with a window formed therein and a multi-layered membrane transparent to x-rays and visible light supported by the rib and covering the window. The membrane consists essentially of at least two silicon nitride layers and at least one silicon oxide layer sandwiched between the silicon nitride layers. The silicon nitride layers are preferably positioned at opposite surfaces of the multi-layered membrane.
