Abstract

See full text

An optical element comprises a substrate and an optical surface formed on the substrate. At least one fluid-tight sealed chamber is embedded in the substrate and has a rheological fluid introduced therein for deforming the optical surface. An optical arrangement, such as an EUV lithography system, comprises at least one optical element as described above and a field generating device for generating an electromagnetic field. The electromagnetic field can be a time-varying electromagnetic field. The electromagnetic field can be a magnetic field. The electromagnetic field passes through the at least one chamber which contains the rheological fluid. A method for producing an optical element designed as described above is also provided.
