Abstract
An extreme ultraviolet (EUV) pellicle including a thin film or membrane and a supportive wire mesh. The pellicle allows EUV radiation to pass through the pellicle to a reticle but prevents particles from passing through the pellicle. A buffer gas supports the film against the wire mesh. The film or membrane may be embedded with support fibers or beams.
