I would like to thank all the authors posting replies to my question about
suppliers of ultrathin foils.

Most of the replies reffered to Goodfellow inc. (http://www.goodfellow.com).
The company indeed offers a great variety of foils but their prices per
quantity are a bit too high to be useful for my project. In fact, I was a
little bit surprised to see that the 5-10 micron foils are much more expensive
than ultrathin Si of the comparable thickness. Since the particular material
was not essential in my case, I ended up with etching Si single crystal wafers
down to a desirable thickness.
