Patent number: 10423073
Abstract: A method for producing a mirror element, in particular for a microlithographic projection exposure apparatus includes: providing a substrate (101, 102, 103, 104, 201, 202, 301, 302, 401, 402, 501, 502, 801, 901, 951, 961); and forming a layer stack (111, 112, 113, 114, 211, 212, 311, 312, 411, 412, 511, 512) on the substrate, wherein the layer stack is formed so that a setpoint curvature of the mirror element for a predetermined operating temperature is generated by a bending force exerted by the layer stack, wherein the substrate has a curvature deviating from the setpoint curvature of the mirror element prior to the formation of the layer stack, and wherein the bending force exerted by the layer stack is at least partly generated by virtue of a post-treatment for changing the layer tension of the layer stack.
