This article reviews on the fabrication advancement of X-ray reflect mirror fabrication in terms of technical requirements, fabrication and metrology development. Synchrotron radiation source, as a revolutionary light source, provides one of the most high-performance X-ray for scientific research, where reflect mirror plays an essential role in X-ray beam focusing. The short wavelength of X-ray demands reflecting photons only at a grazing angle of incidence on the extremely high-precision and smooth surface. Fabrication of such mirrors requires highly specialized equipment and technology that only a few foreign optic manufacturers possess, whereas manufacturers in China is laggard in this area. It is imperative to develop fabrication capability domestically as two synchrotron radiation facilities are under construction and several more projects are about to launch in the near future in China.
