Abstract
There is provided a pellicle for lithography which is capable of preventing or at least restricting the outgas from its mask-bonding agglutinant layer from entering the hollow of the pellicle by virtue of a unique structure of the mask-boding agglutinant layer, that is, the agglutinant layer is formed of two or more juxtaposed endless belts of which the inner-most belt that faces the pellicle hollow is made of a substance which is non-agglutinant while at least one of the other belts is agglutinant; when the outer-most belt is also made of a non-agglutinant substance, the outgas is completely prevented from escapting from the pellicle.
