There is provided a method for manufacturing an alloy ribbon that suppresses a different magnetic properties at each position of the alloy ribbon obtained by crystallizing an amorphous alloy ribbon. The method for manufacturing an alloy ribbon includes: heating a laminated body in which positions of thick portions of a plurality of amorphous alloy ribbons are shifted to a first temperature range less than a crystallization starting temperature; and heating an end portion in a lamination direction of the laminated body to a second temperature range equal to or more than the crystallization starting temperature after the heating the laminated body. An ambient temperature is held after the heating the laminated body such that the laminated body is maintained within a temperature range in which the laminated body can be crystallized by heating the end portion to the second temperature range. Q1+Q2+Q3Q4 is satisfied.

Example embodiments relate to extreme ultraviolet absorbing alloys. One example embodiment includes an alloy. The alloy includes one or more first elements selected from: a first list consisting of: Ag, Ni, Co, and Fe; and a second list consisting of: Ru, Rh, Pd, Os, Ir, and Pt.

An ultraflat and ultralow-friction metallic glass thin film is fabricated. The metallic glass thin film is a binary alloy, wherein a content of one metal element of the binary alloy is between 45 atomic % and 64 atomic %. The metallic glass thin film has an atomically smooth surface with a surface roughness R.sub.a less than 0.1 nm and a total height of profile R.sub.t less than 0.15 nm; the friction coefficient is below 110.sup.2. Due to the metallic glass thin film being treated by ion bombardment, the metallic glass thin film is thermally ultrastable.
