A review of extreme ultraviolet multilayers for solar physics applications is presented. Several promising material couples have been explored to optimize the peak reflectance at different wavelengths [1]. Ad hoc capping layers can be employed both to protect the structure underneath and to enhance the reflectance performance [2]. Such goal is achieved also by introducing an a-periodic design in the top most layers. The results are discussed also considering other features, such as spectral width and purity [3, 4]. Further improvement of related performance can be achieved by a-periodic designs, which provide novel solutions to be considered in view of future space missions. The proposed designs are discussed considering their stability in time and along space missions.

Abstract
A review of extreme ultraviolet multilayers for solar physics applications is presented. Several promising material couples have been explored to optimize the peak reflectance at different wavelengths [1]. Ad hoc capping layers can be employed both to protect the structure underneath and to enhance the reflectance performance [2]. Such goal is achieved also by introducing an a-periodic design in the top most layers. The results are discussed also considering other features, such as spectral width and purity [3, 4]. Further improvement of related performance can be achieved by a-periodic designs, which provide novel solutions to be considered in view of future space missions. The proposed designs are discussed considering their stability in time and along space missions.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
