Abstract

A pellicle assembly is provided for an associated reticle of an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) scanner. The pellicle assembly includes: a pellicle membrane; and a frame configured to mount the pellicle membrane to the associated reticle. Suitably, the pellicle membrane includes: a nanotube material layer; a first protective layer; a second protective layer; an infrared (IR) active layer arranged between the first protective layer and the second protective layer, the IR active layer filtering out IR wavelengths of light passing therethrough; and a deep ultraviolet (DUV) active layer arranged between the first protective layer and the second protective layer, the DUV active layer filtering out DUV wavelengths of light passing therethrough.
