Relation > between the projection image planes and the plane of exposure of substrate of the pattern of < light shields
Fig. 7 is the projection image planes Sm of the cylindric pattern plane P1 for large showing light shield M and supporting is cylindric base
The explanatory diagram of the relation between the plane of exposure Sp of plate P.Then, reference picture 7, to the light in the exposure device U3 of first embodiment
Relation between the projection image planes and the plane of exposure of substrate of the pattern of cover is illustrated.
Exposure device U3 forms the throwing of the pattern of light shield M by being imaged projected light beam EL2 by projection optical system PL
Image plane Sm.The position that the pattern that image planes Sm is light shield M is imaged is projected, is the position for reaching optimum focusing.In addition it is also possible to
Replace projection image planes Sm using the surface of the position in addition to optimum focusing.For example, it is also possible to be formed at and most preferably gather
The face of the burnt position at a distance of predetermined distance.Herein, it is configured with the curved surface for Rm with radius of curvature as described above on light shield M
(being curve in ZX planes).The projection multiplying power of projection optical system PL such as is set at the multiplying power, thus, as view field
In the range of the exposed width 2A of the size in the circumference of PA, also projection image planes Sm is approx regarded as to prolong in the Y direction
Radius of curvature centered on the center line AX1 ' for stretching is a part for the curved surface of Rm.In addition, as noted previously, as substrate P is justified
The bearing-surface P2 of the substrate supporting cylinder 25 of barrel shape keeps, so it is Rp's that the plane of exposure Sp on the surface of substrate P is radius of curvature
A part for curved surface (being curve in ZX planes).And, if as projection image planes Sm the center of curvature center line AX1 ' with
The central shaft AX2 of substrate supporting cylinder 25 is parallel to each other and is included in the plane KS parallel with YZ planes that then plane KS is located at
The midpoint of exposed width 2A, and, it is tangent with the plane of exposure Sp that radius is Rp positioned at the projection image planes Sm that radius is Rm is included in
Y-direction on extend tangent line Cp in interior position.Additionally, for convenience of description, radius Rp and the projection image planes of plane of exposure Sp
The radius Rm of Sm is set as the relation of Rp > Rm.
Herein, keep the cylinder roller 21 of light shield M to be driven by the first drive division 22 and rotated with angular velocity omega m, support base
The substrate supporting cylinder 25 of plate P (plane of exposure Sp) is driven by the second drive division 26 and is rotated with angular velocity omega p.In addition, will be with plane
KS is orthogonal and face of tangent line Cp comprising projection image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp is used as datum level HP.It is assumed that datum level HP with
XY faces are parallel, and datum level HP is mobile with imaginary translational speed V (at the uniform velocity) in the X direction.Translational speed V and projection image
Face Sm and plane of exposure Sp translational speed (peripheral speed) in the circumferential are consistent.Exposure area (the projected area of present embodiment
Domain PA) on the direction parallel with datum level HP, using the tangent line Cp of the projection image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp as center, by width
2A is used as width.That is, exposure area (view field PA) is included on the moving direction of datum level HP, from projection image planes Sm with
Regions of the tangent line Cp of plane of exposure Sp to being moved apart from the position of A to +X direction and -X direction respectively.
Because projection image planes Sm is formed by being rotated with angular velocity omega m on the face of radius of curvature R m, so being located at tangent line
The specified point on projection image planes Sm on Cp only rotates θ m=ω mt after elapsed time t.Therefore, when the sight on datum level HP
When examining, the specified point is located at the point Cp1 only to +X direction movement Xm=RmSin (θ m).On the other hand, when on tangent line Cp
Above-mentioned specified point when being moved linearly with translational speed V along datum level HP, the specified point is located at only to+X after elapsed time t
Move the point Cp0 of Vt in direction.Therefore, when the specified point on tangent line Cp is moved along projection image planes Sm and along datum level
The departure Δ 1 of the amount of movement in the X-direction after elapsed time t when HP moves linearly is Δ 1=Vt-Xm=Vt-
Rm·Sin(θm)。
Similarly, because plane of exposure Sp is formed by being rotated with angular velocity omega p on the face of radius of curvature R p, so working as
When being observed on datum level HP, the specified point on the plane of exposure Sp on tangent line Cp only rotates θ p=ω p after elapsed time t
t.Therefore, the specified point on plane of exposure Sp is located at the point Cp2 only to +X direction movement Xp=RpSin (θ p).Therefore, cutting
The X side after elapsed time t when specified point on line Cp is moved along plane of exposure Sp and when being moved linearly along datum level HP
The departure Δ 2 of upward amount of movement is Δ 2=Vt-Xp=Vt-RpSin (θ p).Above-mentioned departure Δ 1, Δ 2
Projection error referred to as when by the spot projection in barrel surface in plane (datum level HP).As be previously illustrated in Figure 5 that
Sample, in the present embodiment, in the view field PA of the exposed width 2A shown in Fig. 7, the projection image of the pattern of light shield M is with remote
The state of the heart is projected onto plane of exposure Sp.That is, in XZ faces, each point on image planes Sm is projected along the line parallel with plane KS
(line vertical with datum level HP) is projected on plane of exposure Sp.Therefore, the projection image planes corresponding with the point Cp0 on datum level HP
Point Cp1 (position Xm) on Sm is also projected to the position Xm in identical X-direction, the position of point Cp1 on plane of exposure Sp
Deviation is produced between the position Xp of the point Cp2 on Xm and the plane of exposure Sp corresponding with the point Cp0 on datum level HP.The deviation
Main cause is that the radius Rp of the radius Rm and plane of exposure Sp that project image planes Sm is different.
Like this, in the case of radius Rm and radius Rp are differentiated, the point Cp1 on projection image planes Sm shown in Fig. 7
Departure Δ 1 and plane of exposure Sp on point Cp2 departure Δ 2 between difference component Δ (=Δ 1- Δs 2), with exposed width
The position of the X-direction in 2A accordingly gradually changes.Therefore, to because of projection image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp in exposed width 2A
The difference component Δ of deviation that produces of semidiameter (Rm/Rp) carry out quantification (emulation), thereby, it is possible to set in view of projection exposure
The optimal conditions of exposure of the quality (quality of projection image) of the pattern on light to substrate P.Additionally, difference component Δ is also referred to as inciting somebody to action
Cylindric projection image planes Sm is transferred to projection error when on the plane of exposure Sp of cylindrical shape.
Fig. 8 A are, as an example, the radius Rm for projecting image planes Sm to be set into 125mm, and the radius Rp of plane of exposure Sp is set
Be 200mm, make projection image planes Sm peripheral speed (being set to Vm) it is consistent with the peripheral speed (being set to Vp) of plane of exposure Sp,
It is in the state of translational speed V, in the range of ± the 10mm as exposed width 2A, calculates above-mentioned departure Δ 1, Δ 2
And the curve map of the change of difference component Δ.In fig. 8 a, transverse axis is represented with the center of the view field PA (position that plane KS passes through
Put) used as the coordinate position [mm] on the datum level HP of origin, the longitudinal axis represents departure Δ 1, Δ 2, the difference component Δ for calculating
[μm].As shown in Figure 8 A, it is poor in the case where the peripheral speed Vp of the peripheral speed Vm and plane of exposure Sp of projection image planes Sm is consistent
The absolute value of component Δ is with away from from the position (origin) of projection image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp tangent tangent line Cp to ± X-direction
And become larger.For example, in order to carry out the loyal transfer of pattern that minimum feature is several μm~10 μm or so and by difference component
The absolute value of Δ is limited in the case of 1 μm or so, and the result of calculation according to Fig. 8 A is, it is necessary to by the exposed width of view field PA
2A is set to ± 6mm (being 12mm on width) below.
If additionally, the peripheral speed of the pattern plane of the light shield M that cylinder roller 21 is kept is set to Vf, according to projection
The projection multiplying power β of optical system PL, the peripheral speed Vm for projecting image planes Sm is set as the relation of Vm=β Vf.If for example, throwing
Shadow multiplying power β be 1.00 (etc. multiplying power), then the peripheral speed Vp of the peripheral speed Vf and plane of exposure Sp of the pattern plane of light shield M is set
For equal, if projection multiplying power β is 2.00 (with 2 times of amplifications), it is set as 2Vf=Vp.Usually, as shown in Figure 8 A, due to
Each peripheral speed for projecting image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp is set as Vm=Vp, so so that the relation (speed of benchmark of β Vf=Vp
Degree relation) mode set up critically controls the rotation of the substrate supporting cylinder 25 for keeping the cylinder roller 21 of light shield M and supporting substrates P
Tarnsition velocity.But, as shown in Fig. 8 C as be described hereinafter, to the circle of the peripheral speed Vm and plane of exposure Sp of projection image planes Sm
In the case that how the difference of circular velocity Vp imparting very littles changes come the difference component Δ in the analogous diagram 8A that tries, by circumference speed
Degree Vm and peripheral speed Vp assign the difference of very little, can limit the absolute value of difference component Δ to expand energy in the state of very little
Enough exposed width 2A for utilizing.In the present embodiment, radius Rms of the radius Rp based on plane of exposure Sp more than projection image planes Sm
Condition, the peripheral speed Vp of plane of exposure Sp is set to lower relative to the peripheral speed Vm of projection image planes Sm.Specifically, so that
The peripheral speed Vp of plane of exposure Sp is constant and makes the datum level HP's shown in a little higher than Fig. 7 of peripheral speed Vm of projection image planes Sm
The mode of translational speed V, only makes some changes to the angular velocity of rotation ω m for projecting image planes Sm (light shield M) side.After change
Angular speed is set to ω m ', and the anglec of rotation of the projection image planes Sm after elapsed time t is set into θ m '.When trying projection image
The peripheral speed Vm of face Sm is set to be higher by a little only with respect to translational speed V calculate during departure Δ 1, the deviation in Fig. 8 A
The curve for measuring the curve map of Δ 1 is changed in the way of being changed into having negative slope in origin 0.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, using such tendency, with the position in exposed width 2A and across origin 0
The difference component Δ of two symmetrical positions is that zero mode sets the peripheral speed Vm (angular velocity omega m ') of projection image planes Sm.
Fig. 8 B are to represent difference component Δ, departure Δ 1, each calculating of Δ 2 obtained after the peripheral speed Vm for changing projection image planes Sm
The definition of the curve map of result, the longitudinal axis and transverse axis is identical with Fig. 8 A.In the fig. 8b, in the curve map of departure Δ 2 and Fig. 8 A
Curve map is identical, but on+5mm of the curve map of departure Δ 1 in exposed width, each position of -5mm and origin 0, with
Departure Δ 1 is that zero mode sets the angular velocity omega m ' (θ m ') of projection image planes Sm.Its result is that difference component Δ is in exposure
The slope variation of position in width in the range of ± 4mm to bear, on the outside of it in the range of with positive slope variation, exposing
Everybody of origin 0 ,+6.4mm, -6.4mm in optical width is set to zero.
In the case where the scope that be can allow for as difference component Δ is such as ± 1 μm or so, Fig. 8 A's above
Under the conditions of exposed width be ± 6mm, but the exposed width under conditions of Fig. 8 B is expanded to ± 8mm or so.It means that
The size in the scan exposure direction (circumference) of view field PA can be increased to 16mm (about increasing by 33%) from 12mm, if exposure
The illumination of illumination light is identical, then need not reduce the fidelity of pattern transfer, and the transporting velocity of substrate P just is improved into about 33%
To improve productivity.In addition, the size of view field PA increase 33% can be also implied that the light exposure for making imparting substrate P only
Increase this tittle, conditions of exposure can be relaxed.Additionally, exposure device U3 can be while using the rotary encoder point of high de-agglomeration energy
The rotation of the cylinder roller 21 of light shield M and the rotation of the substrate supporting cylinder 25 of supporting substrates P Ce Liang not kept and servo control is carried out
System, the difference of small rotary speed is produced thereby, it is possible to one side, while carrying out high-precision rotation control.
The peripheral speed Vp of plane of exposure Sp is being equal to the translational speed V of datum level HP, the circle of image planes Sm will projected
In the case that circular velocity Vm is set to the translational speed V of a little higher than datum level HP, the difference component Δ shown in Fig. 8 A is as shown in Figure 8 C
Ground change.Fig. 8 C show the tendency in the case of following, i.e. only for the curve map of the difference component Δ in Fig. 8 A, will project
The rate of change of peripheral speed Vps (=V) of the peripheral speed Vm of image planes Sm relative to plane of exposure Sp be set to α (=(Vm-Vp)/
Vp) %, α is changed+0.01% every time from ± 0%.In the curve map and Fig. 8 A of the difference component Δ of α=± 0% in Fig. 8 C
The curve map of difference component Δ is identical.In the case of rate of change α=± 0%, peripheral speed Vm is in consistent with peripheral speed Vp
State, for example, in the case of rate of change α=+ 0.02%, peripheral speed Vm is in bigger than peripheral speed Vp 0.02% shape
State.Based on the calculating as shown in Fig. 8 C, in the fig. 8b, make the peripheral speed Vm of projection image planes Sm relative to datum level HP's
Reference speed V (=Vp) is emulated in the state of increasing about 0.026%.The simulation result of Fig. 8 C be by will to relative to
The θ m of the RmSin (θ m) in the mathematical expression that the departure Δ 1 of the datum level HP of projection image planes Sm is solved replace with (1+
α) θ m and obtained from carrying out various changes to rate of change α.In fact, when the X side that Vt is replaced with expression exposed width
During the A of upward position (mm), difference component Δ can simply be obtained by following formula.
Δ=Δ 1- Δs 2=(A-RmSin ((1+ α) A/Rm))-Δ 2
As described above, in the case where the radius Rp of the radius Rm and plane of exposure Sp of projection image planes Sm is different, by throwing
Each translational speed (peripheral speed Vm, Vp) of image plane Sm and plane of exposure Sp assigns the difference of very little, when can expand scan exposure
Various conditions of exposures (sensitivity of the radius, photosensitive layer of light shield M, the transporting velocity of substrate P, the power of illuminating light source,
Size of view field PA etc.) setting range, can obtain neatly tackling the exposure device of the change of technique etc..
Hereinafter, very little is assigned in each peripheral speed Vm, Vp as shown in Figure 8 B to projection image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp
In the case of difference, reference picture 9, the contrast for the pattern image obtained on plane of exposure Sp is illustrated.What Fig. 9 was shown below
Curve map:The position (absolute value) of the exposed width that the origin 0 in Fig. 8 A, 7B is set to 0mm is taken on transverse axis, is taken on the longitudinal axis
The value of origin 0 is set to 1.00 (100%) contrast ratio, there is no difference between image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp is projected
Situation (Fig. 8 A) and under there is difference (Fig. 8 B), calculated corresponding with the position in exposed width
Contrast than change curve map.In the present embodiment, the wavelength X of illuminating bundle EL1 (exposure light) is set to
365nm, 0.0875 is set to by the numerical aperture NA of the projection optical system PL (PLM) shown in Fig. 4, and process constant k is set to
0.6.Because the maximum resolution ratio Rs for obtaining under this condition obtains 2.5 μm according to Rs=k (λ/NA), so in accordance with meter
Calculate and used 2.5 μm L&S (line & intervals) pattern.
As shown in figure 9, larger by the curvature in the plane of exposure Sp on the projection image planes Sm and substrate P by mask pattern
The peripheral speed Vp of one surface side be set to slightly less than another peripheral speed Vm make to obtain high-contrast than exposed width
Scope expands.For example, being 0.8 or so contrast ratio is needed in order to maintain the quality of the pattern image being transferred on plane of exposure Sp
In the case of, the exposed width under the state (Vm=Vp) without difference is ± 6mm or so, in contrast, in tool
There is the exposed width under the state (Vm > Vp) of difference to be able to ensure that in ± more than 8mm.If in addition, contrast ratio also may be used
Think 0.6 or so, then the exposed width under the state (Vm > Vp) with difference can be expanded to ± 9.5mm or so.
As described above, the difference of very little is assigned by the peripheral speed Vp of peripheral speed Vm and plane of exposure Sp to projection image planes Sm, even if
Sizes (exposed width 2A) of the increase view field PA on scan exposure direction, it is also possible to the pattern image that realization will be projected
Contrast (picture quality) is maintained good pattern exposure.Further, since view field PA can be increased in scan exposure side
Upward exposed width 2A, it is possible to further improving the transporting velocity of substrate P, or reduces every single in view field PA
The illumination of the exposure light (projected light beam EL2) of plane product.
Additionally, as shown in Fig. 8 C above, difference (Vm-Vp) is gradually changed a little on one side, while emulation phase
For the position of exposed width difference component Δ in the case of, preferably by the projection image planes Sm of the pattern in view field PA with
The average value or maximum of the difference component Δ of the skew on scan exposure direction of the plane of exposure Sp in substrate P are set as small
In the minimum feature (minimum dimension) of the pattern image that should be transferred.For example, when the exposure being conceived in the exposed width in Fig. 8 B
In the scope of 0mm~+6mm, the average value of difference component Δ within the range is about -0.42 μm to width, and maximum is about
It is -0.66 μm.In addition, when scope of the exposed width in 0mm~+8mm is conceived to, difference component Δ within the range it is average
Value is about -0.18 μm, and maximum is about+1.2 μm.If the minimum feature of the pattern image that should be transferred is set to before carrying out
2.5 μm set during the emulation of the Fig. 9 in face, the then scope and exposed width for reaching 6mm in exposed width reaches the scope of 8mm
In, the average value of difference component Δ, maximum can be contracted to less than 2.5 μm of minimum feature.
In addition, as shown in Fig. 8 B above, in the variation characteristic of the difference component Δ obtained by emulation, preferably in reality
Exposed width (sizes of the view field PA on scan exposure direction) in the position that difference component Δ is zero is at least set 3
It is individual.For example, in the case of the exposed width that view field PA is set as into ± 8mm, interior during scan exposure, projection to throwing
The position of-the 8mm of a point in the pattern image in the PA of shadow zone domain from exposed width is moved to the position of+8mm.During this period
Interior, a point in pattern image is respectively by position -6.4mm, position 0mm (origin), position+6.4mm that difference component Δ is zero
And be transferred on plane of exposure Sp.In this way, by with least 3 in the exposed width on the scan exposure direction of view field PA
Make the mode that difference component Δ is zero on individual position, critically control keeps cylinder roller 21 and the substrate supporting cylinder 25 of light shield M
Each rotary speed, can will be exposed to size of the pattern image of (plane of exposure Sp) in view field PA on scan exposure direction
(line width) limits of error is obtained smaller such that it is able to carry out the pattern transfer of loyalty.
As previously explained above, numbers of the maximum resolution ratio Rs according to the projection image planes Sm sides of projection optical system PL
It is worth aperture NA, the wavelength X of illuminating bundle EL2, (usual less than 1) is determined process constant k by Rs=k (λ/NA).This
In the case of, when the translational speed of datum level HP is set into V, the displacement of datum level HP is set to x, by the absolute of exposed width
When value is set to A, following relations are preferably met.
[mathematical expression 1]
[mathematical expression 2]
Mathematical expression F (x) is the formula of the difference component Δ of the position x for representing certain point on datum level HP, such as reference
As Fig. 7 is illustrated, the relation of the translational speed V and displacement x of datum level HP is equivalent to time t (=x/V).This implementation
The exposure device U3 of mode, even if increasing the exposed width of effective view field PA, also need not by meeting above-mentioned mathematical expression
The contrast of the pattern image that reduction is projected, can form pattern with good picture quality in substrate P.
In addition, the exposure device U3 of present embodiment can replace the cylinder roller 21 for keeping light shield M.It is being reflection-type
In the case of cylinder light shield, can directly be formed on the outer peripheral face of cylinder roller 21 as the high reflection portion of mask pattern and low
Reflecting part (light absorption department).In this case, light shield replacing is carried out to each cylinder roller 21.Now, make sometimes again
The cylinder light shield installed before being installed on the radius (diameter) of the cylinder roller 21 of the reflection-type cylinder light shield of exposure device and changing
Radius it is different.This is in the case where the size (size of display panel etc.) of the device that be exposed in substrate P is changed
Etc. what may be occurred.In the present embodiment, though in this case, the mask pattern based on the cylinder roller 21 after replacing
The radius in face, carries out the calculating (emulation) such as Fig. 8 A~7C, Fig. 9, thereby, it is possible in advance determine should be to cylinder roller 21 and base
The angular velocity of rotation of the plate supporting setting of cylinder 25 is poor, the view field PA that should set exposed width, the illumination light that should adjust
The parameters such as the transporting velocity (rotary speed of substrate supporting cylinder 25) of the illumination of beam EL2 or the substrate P that should be adjusted.Additionally,
In the case where the radius Rm multiple cylinder rollers 21 different with such as millimeter unit or centimetre unit are replaceably mounted, if
The mechanism that the bearing portion for having the exposure device side of Pivot axle AX1 in z-direction to supporting cylinder roller 21 is adjusted.
In addition, in the parameter as adjustment, and in the case of changing the exposed width on the scan exposure direction of view field PA, can
It is adjusted using the illuminated field diaphragm 55 or the field stop 63 of intermediate image plane P7 in such as Fig. 4.As described above, exposure
Device U3 (substrate board treatment) accordingly can suitably adjust conditions of exposure by adjusting above-mentioned various parameters with light shield M,
Thus allow for adapting to the exposure of light shield M.
Exposure device U3 is preferably based on according to by the conditional of the relationship specifications between projection image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp
The value that calculates, the value for also being calculated based on the measurement result such as flexible with reference to the substrate P in manufacturing process are adjusted
The translational speed and the scan exposure of view field PA of the substrate P kept based on substrate holding mechanism 12 (substrate supporting cylinder 25)
At least one of the width in direction.Thus, exposure device U3 can automatically adjust various conditions.
Width of the exposure device U3 of present embodiment in the whole area of the pattern of the display panel being formed in substrate P etc.
On the premise of size on the axle AX2 directions of size on direction more than view field PA, with projection optical system PL's
The mode that view field PA is arranged as shown in the right part of Fig. 3 is provided with the projection optical system PL1~PL6 of 6, but according to substrate
The width of P, the quantity can be one, or more than 7.
Preferably, in the case where multiple projection optical system PL are arranged on the width of substrate P, exposed in scanning

The width of plate P) on it is anywhere all substantially certain (such as within ± several %).
[second embodiment]
Hereinafter, reference picture 10, the exposure device U3a to second embodiment is illustrated.Additionally, in order to avoid repetition
Record, illustrated only for the part different from first embodiment, for the inscape same with first embodiment
Mark pays first embodiment identical reference to illustrate.Figure 10 is the exposure device for showing second embodiment
The integrally-built figure of (substrate board treatment).The exposure device U3 of first embodiment is using cylindric substrate supporting cylinder
25 keep the structure of substrate P passed through from view field, but the exposure device U3a of second embodiment is using removable
Base supporting mechanism 12a keep the structure of flat substrate P.
In the exposure device U3a of second embodiment, base supporting mechanism 12a is plane with substrate P is remained
Substrate objective table 102 and substrate objective table 102 (XY faces) in the plane orthogonal with median plane CL is swept along the X direction
Retouch mobile mobile device (omitting diagram).
Because the bearing-surface P2 of the substrate P of Figure 10 is substantially the plane parallel with XY faces, so being incorporated to by light shield M reflection
The projected light beam EL2 for being incident upon projection optics module PLM (PL1~PL6) is set as, when substrate P is projeced into, projected light beam EL2
Chief ray it is vertical with XY faces.
In addition, in this second embodiment also in the same manner as Fig. 2 above, when being observed in XZ faces, from light shield M

It is set as, the central point with the view field PA1 (and PA3, PA5) from the substrate P for copying bearing-surface P2 is projected to second
Girth untill the central point of region PA2 (and PA4, PA6) is substantially equal.
In the exposure device U3a of Figure 10, the mobile device of the also control base board supporting device 12 of slave control device 16 (is swept

Hereinafter, reference picture 11, to the projection image planes Sm of the pattern of the light shield M in the exposure device U3a of second embodiment
Movement and substrate P plane of exposure Sp movement between relation illustrate.Figure 11 is based on the bar same with Fig. 7 above
Part and definition, large show light shield M pattern projection image planes Sm and substrate P on plane of exposure Sp between relation explanation
Figure.
Exposure device U3a forms the projection of the pattern of the light shield M of cylinder planar using the projection optical system PL of telecentricity
Image planes Sm.Projection image planes Sm is also the optimum focusing face of the pattern imaging of light shield M.Herein also due to the pattern plane of light shield M is formed
It is that radius of curvature is the curved surface of Rm, so projection image planes Sm also turns into radius of curvature centered on imaginary line AX1 ' as Rm
A part for barrel surface (being circular curve in ZX planes).On the other hand, because substrate P is remained by substrate objective table 102
Plane, so plane of exposure Sp is plane (being straight line in ZX planes).Therefore, the plane of exposure Sp in present embodiment be with above
Fig. 7 shown in the consistent surfaces of datum level HP.That is, plane of exposure Sp is considered as the surface of radius of curvature R p infinities (∞),
Or, relative to the great curved surfaces of radius Rm of projection image planes Sm.
Because projection image planes Sm is formed by radius of curvature to be rotated with angular velocity omega m on the face of Rm, so projection image planes
Point Cp on Sm and plane of exposure Sp tangent projection image planes Sm is located at after elapsed time t and only have rotated angle, θ m=ω mt's
Point Cp1.Therefore, position Xms of the point Cp1 on projection image planes Sm on the direction (X-direction) along datum level HP is changed into Xm=
Rm·Sin(θm).Further, since plane of exposure Sp is the plane consistent with datum level HP, so projection image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp
Point Cp on tangent plane of exposure Sp is located on only in an X direction the point Cp0 for moving Xp=Vt after elapsed time t.Therefore,
As using Fig. 7 explanations above, the point on the point Cp1 and plane of exposure Sp on projection image planes Sm after elapsed time t
Departure Δs 1 of the Cp0 in X-direction (scan exposure direction) is Δ 1=Vt-RmSin (θ m).
The departure Δ 1 of Figure 11 is substrate P or exposure so that CAV is moved because of light shield M or projection image planes Sm
Projection error (Sin errors) produced by the Sp uniform rectilinear's movements of face.If when point Cp is located at as the center in exposed width 2A
Plane KS on when, the departure Δ 1 is set to zero, then the departure Δ 1 with from the position to ± X-direction away from and by
It is cumulative big.When scan exposure, in the range of the exposed width 2A on plane of exposure Sp in substrate P, to projection image planes Sm's
Pattern image is continuously added up and is transferred.But, because the projection error by departure Δ 1 is influenceed so that be transferred
The size on scan exposure direction of pattern image has error relative to the size of the pattern on light shield M, under transfer fidelity
Drop.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, by image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp is projected, by the less side of radius of curvature
Surface peripheral speed be set to the larger side of a little higher than radius of curvature surface peripheral speed, can obtain with above
The same effect of first embodiment.In the present embodiment, due to the radius of curvature R p and projection image planes Sm of plane of exposure Sp
Radius of curvature R m there is the relation of Rp > > Rm, so compared with the translational speed V of plane of exposure Sp, relatively slightly improving projection
The peripheral speed Vm of image planes Sm.
Hereinafter, using Figure 12~Figure 18, the example that various emulation are performed to the structure using exposure device U3a enters
Row explanation.Figure 12 is the circumference for showing the translational speed V (identical with peripheral speed Vp) based on plane of exposure Sp and projection image planes Sm
The curve map of the change that speed Vm has indifference and produces departure Δ 1, the longitudinal axis of Figure 12 represents the departure Δ in Figure 11
1, transverse axis represents exposed width in the same manner as Fig. 8 A, 7B.Additionally, in each emulation after Figure 12, being by the radius Rm of light shield M
The radius Rm for projecting image planes Sm is set to 150mm.As being illustrated in Figure 11, make the translational speed V (circles of plane of exposure Sp
Circular velocity Vp) equal in the case of the peripheral speed Vm for projecting image planes Sm, i.e., in the case of no difference, when by partially
When the allowed band of residual quantity Δ 1 is set to ± 1 μm or so, exposed width is the scope of ± 5mm or so.
Therefore, if the angular speed for projecting image planes Sm is adjusted into ω m ' (ω m < ω m ') from ω m, make projection image planes Sm's
Translational speed V (peripheral speed Vp) of a little higher than plane of exposure Sp of peripheral speed Vm, then departure Δ 1 ' is centered on origin 0
Slope variation in the range of exposed width ± 4mm to bear, with positive slope variation on the outside of the scope.If by departure Δ 1 '
Be zero exposed width on position be arranged at the place of ± 6.7mm or so, then the allowed band of departure Δ 1 ' converges on ± 1
μm or so exposed width be ± 8mm or so scope.Compared with the situation for not assigning difference, this is possible to as sweeping
Retouch the exposed width expansion 60% or so that exposure is used.
Hereinafter, in the same manner as Fig. 9 above, for making the translational speed V (=peripheral speed Vp) of plane of exposure Sp with projection
The peripheral speed Vm of image planes Sm consistent situation (without difference) and assign the situation of small difference and (there is peripheral speed
Difference) under the change of contrast value (or contrast ratio) of pattern image illustrate.
Figure 13 A show to work as and the numerical aperture NA of the plane of exposure Sp sides of projection optical system PL are set into 0.0875, will be illuminated
When the wavelength of light beam EL1 is set to 365nm, process constant is set to 0.6 and illumination σ is set into 0.7, on it will be formed in light shield M
Rs=2.5 μm of ultimate resolution L&S patterns projected in the case of the contrast of picture that is obtained on plane of exposure Sp.Figure
13B represents that isolated line (ISO) pattern for Rs=2.5 μm of the ultimate resolution obtained under the conditions of by same projection is projected
In the case of the contrast of picture that is obtained on plane of exposure Sp.
Either 2.5 μm of L&S patterns or ISO patterns, reaches the contrast value of bright part of picture close to 1.0 and dark portion
Tap nearly 0 intensity distribution CN1 preferably.Contrast value is the maximum Imax and the light of dark-part using the luminous intensity of bright part
The minimum value Imin of intensity, obtains according to (Imax-Imin)/(Imax+Imin).Intensity distribution CN1 is generally in right
The state higher than degree, the low state of contrast refers to that the difference of maximum Imax and minimum value Imin as intensity distribution CN2 (is shaken
Width) situation about diminishing.The intensity distribution CN1 of the picture shown in Figure 13 A, 12B is 2.5 μm of L&S pattern or ISO patterns
The contrast of static projection image, but in the case of scan exposure, moved on the whole exposed width of setting in substrate P
In a period of, such as while the change according to the difference component Δ or departure Δ 1 illustrated in fig. 12 that are illustrated in Fig. 8 B makes
Static intensity distribution CN1 offsets up in scan exposure side, while the value being accumulated by, as the figure being transferred in substrate P
The final contrast of case picture.
Hereinafter, the simulation result being shown below in Figure 14, Figure 15, i.e. the projection exposure bar illustrated in Figure 13 A, 12B
Under part (Rm=150mm, Rp=∞, NA=0.0875, λ=365nm, k=0.6), the throwing to the L&S patterns relative to 2.5 μm
The result that the change of the contrast value (contrast ratio) of the position on exposed width of image is emulated.Figure 14, Figure 15
Transverse axis represent positive side exposed width A position, the longitudinal axis represents the contrast that utilization (Imax-Imin)/(Imax+Imin) is obtained
Angle value and the contrast value at by exposed width 0mm are standardized as the contrast ratio in the case of 1.0.And, Figure 14 shows
Make the translational speed V (=peripheral speed Vp) of plane of exposure Sp consistent with the peripheral speed Vm of projection image planes Sm without peripheral speed
Contrast change in the case of difference, Figure 15 shows as the variation characteristic of the departure Δ 1 ' in Figure 12, to project image planes Sm
Peripheral speed Vm slightly larger than plane of exposure Sp translational speed V (=peripheral speed Vp) with difference in the case of
Contrast changes.
As shown in figure 14, in the case of without difference (before amendment), although contrast ratio is in the position of exposed width
Substantially certain putting from origin 0 to 4mm or so, but since the position of more than 5mm drastically decline.And, exposure
In the case of more than 8mm, contrast ratio is changed into less than 0.4 for the position of width, and the exposure to photoresist may become right
It is more not enough than degree.Additionally, in simulations, in the position of exposed width for the contrast value at 0mm is about 0.934, contrast ratio
It is that the value is standardized as 1.0 expressions.
In contrast, in the case where there is difference (after amendment) as shown in figure 15, in the position of exposed width
For between 0~4mm, contrast ratio gradually decreases down 0.8 or so from 1.0, but between the position of exposed width is 4mm~8mm,
Contrast ratio maintains 0.8 or so.In simulations, it is the contrast ratio about 0.77 at 5mm in the position of exposed width,
Position is the contrast ratio about 0.82 at 7mm.
Like this, by making the peripheral speed Vm of projection image planes Sm slightly larger than the translational speed V of plane plane of exposure Sp
(=peripheral speed Vp), the exposed width 2A of the view field PA that can be set in scan exposure can be increased.
In addition, as shown in figure 16,2.5 μm in the case of without difference (before amendment) of ISO patterns as
Contrast than to the position of exposed width be 5mm be all substantially certain, but begun slowly to down from more than 5mm
Drop, is set to 0.9 is about 6mm in place, and about 0.6 is set to 8mm in place, is set at 9mm about 0.5 in place, and
In place being set to is about 0.4 at 10mm.Additionally, the contrast in Figure 16 is than being to be with the position of exposed width in fig. 14
On the basis of the contrast value (about 0.934) of the picture of the L&S patterns of 2.5 μm obtained at 0mm, take and schemed using 2.5 μm of ISO
The ratio of the contrast value (set to 0 0.968 is about at mm in place) that the picture of case is obtained.Therefore, the contrast shown in Figure 16 than just
Initial value (being set to the value at 0mm in place) is about 1.04.
In contrast, in the case where there is difference (after amendment) as shown in figure 17, in the position of exposed width
In the range of 0~8mm, the contrast ratio of the picture of 2.5 μm of ISO patterns maintains more than 0.9, is set in place at 9mm and declines
To 0.8 or so, but even if in place being set at 10mm is also maintained at about 0.67.As described above, by making projection image planes Sm's
The relative translational speed V (=peripheral speed Vp) slightly larger than plane plane of exposure Sp of peripheral speed Vm, can increase in scanning
The exposed width 2A of the view field PA that can be set during exposure.
Additionally, also following evaluation assessment, i.e. to the peripheral speed of the peripheral speed Vm and plane of exposure Sp of projection image planes Sm
Small difference is assigned between Vp (or translational velocity V), is obtained such as the deviation in the difference component Δ or Figure 12 in Fig. 8 B
The characteristic of Δ 1 ' is measured, for the scope of clearly optimal exposed width 2A (or A), and difference component Δ or departure Δ is utilized
Relation between 1 ' and resolution ratio Rs.Hereinafter, the method is illustrated, but to put it more simply, sometimes by the difference in Fig. 8 B
Departure Δ 1 ' in amount Δ or Figure 12 is referred to as image displacement amount Δ.
In the evaluation assessment, calculate the average value/Rs's of image displacement amount Δ for each position on exposed width
Relation or image displacement amount Δ2Average value/Rs relation.Therefore, based on Figure 18, Figure 19, illustrate with the flat of image displacement amount Δ
Average/Rs is used as evaluation of estimate Q1, the example emulated using the average value/Rs of image displacement amount Δ 2 as evaluation of estimate Q2.Figure 18
Curve map with the departure Δ 1 ' shown in Figure 12 above is identical, but the exposed width that will be calculated is set to the model of ± 12mm
Enclose.In addition, it is interval to calculate sampled point on the exposed width of departure Δ 1 ' (image displacement amount Δ) same with Figure 12
0.5mm。
The average value of image displacement amount Δ is to each to what is obtained the sampled point having in mind in the origin 0mm from exposed width
The absolute value of departure Δ 1 ' carries out what arithmetic average was obtained.For example, position is the flat of the image displacement amount Δ of the sampled point of -10mm
Average is that will to be in place set to 0mm~position be the deviation that each sampled point (the being in figure 18 21 points) place between -10mm obtains
The absolute value for measuring Δ 1 ' is added, then will add up what the value for obtaining was obtained divided by sampled point quantity.In the case of Figure 18, in place
The additive value for being set to the absolute value of the departure Δ 1 ' of each sample point of 0mm~-10mm is 20.86 μm, then divided by sampled point
The average value that number 21 is obtained is about 0.99 μm.In addition, NA=0.0875, λ=368nm, process constant k=0.5 are set herein,
So as to the resolution ratio Rs in emulation is set into 2.09 μm.Therefore, it is the evaluation of estimate Q1 (nothings at -10mm in the position of exposed width
Unit) it is about 0.48.If each position (sampled point) in exposed width is calculated as described above, evaluation of estimate is understood
The dynamic trend of Q1.
In addition, (image displacement amount Δ)2Average value be to by the origin 0mm from exposed width to concern sampled point it
Between the absolute value of each departure Δ 1 ' that obtains carry out the value after square operation (μm2) carry out what arithmetic average was obtained.In Figure 18
In the case of, for example, position is added again for the absolute value of the departure Δ 1 ' of each sampled point of 0mm~-10mm is squared
To value be 42.47 μm2, then it is about 2.02 μm divided by the average value that sampling number 21 is obtained2.Due to by the resolution in emulation
Rate Rs is set to 2.09 μm, so being that evaluation of estimate Q2 at -10mm is about 0.97 μm in the position of exposed width.If wide in exposure
Each position (sampled point) in degree is calculated as described above, then understand the dynamic trend of evaluation of estimate Q2 (μm).
Figure 19 is that evaluation of estimate Q1, Q2 obtained through the above way is taken on the longitudinal axis, and the position of exposed width is taken on transverse axis
The curve map put.Evaluation of estimate Q1 (average value/resolution ratio Rs of image displacement amount Δ) puts down as exposed width (absolute value) becomes big
Change slowly, be about changed into substantially 1.0 in the position of ± 12mm of exposed width.This means the image position in the position of ± 12mm
The average value of shifting amount Δ is substantially uniform with resolution ratio Rs.On the other hand, evaluation of estimate Q2 (image displacement amount Δs2Average value/resolution ratio
Rs) it is changed with the tendency equal with evaluation of estimate Q1 in the range of untill the position of exposed width is at ± 8mm,
It is increased dramatically during more than 8mm, is substantially to be changed into 1 (μm) at ± 10mm in the position of exposed width.
Herein, in the contrast of the L&S patterns shown in the contrast change of the ISO patterns shown in Figure 17 above or Figure 15
Degree change in, contrast than since exposed width more than 8mm place significantly decline.That is obtained in Figure 15, Figure 17 is right
Than degree than change be that resolution ratio Rs is set to 2.5 μm of situation, although be not the contrast calculated using Rs=2.09 μm
The change of ratio, but tendency is substantially the same.Like this, can by the evaluation assessment using evaluation of estimate Q1 or Q2 as index,
To determine to reflect the optimal exposed width that contrast changes.
Additionally, in this case, because plane of exposure Sp and datum level HP are abreast in the X direction with movement
Speed V (peripheral speed Vp) is mobile, so mathematical expression F (x) used in first embodiment above is replaced with as following
Mathematical expression F ' (X).

Side, it is also possible to be configured at the outside of cylinder roller 21a.In addition, light source can also be other devices separated with exposure device EX
(external device (ED)).
Exposure device U3b in the case where transmission-type light shield is used as light shield, also in the same manner as exposure device U3, U3a,
The translational speed (peripheral speed Vm) of (amendment) projection image planes Sm is adjusted by the same manner as second embodiment above and is exposed
Relation between the translational speed (V or peripheral speed Vp) of smooth surface Sp, can expand the available exposure in scan exposure
Width.
[the 4th implementation method]
Hereinafter, the exposure device U3c of 21 pairs of the 4th implementation methods of reference picture is illustrated.Additionally, in order to avoid repetition
Record, illustrated only for the part different from previous each implementation method, for same with previous each implementation method
Inscape marks identical reference to illustrate.Figure 21 is the exposure device for showing the 4th implementation method (at substrate
Reason device) integrally-built figure.Exposure device U3, U3a, U3b of previous each implementation method are to use rotatable circle
The structure of the cylindric light shield M that cylinder roller 21 (or 21a) is kept.Set in the exposure device U3c of the 4th implementation method
Have light shield maintaining body 11b, light shield maintaining body 11b have remain flat reflection-type light shield MB and work as scan exposure
When the light shield objective table 110 that is moved in the X direction along XY faces.
In the exposure device U3c of the 4th implementation method, light shield maintaining body 11b has the flat reflection type optical of holding
Cover the light shield objective table 110 of MB, make the scanning movement along the X direction in the plane orthogonal with median plane CL of light shield objective table 110
Mobile device (omit diagram).
Because the light cover P1 of the light shield MB of Figure 21 is substantially the plane parallel with XY faces, so reflected from light shield MB
The chief ray of projected light beam EL2 is vertical with XY faces.Therefore, from the illumination of each illumination region IR1~IR6 on irradiation light shield MB
The chief ray of the illuminating bundle EL1 of optical system IL1~IL6 is also configured as vertical with XY faces via polarising beam splitter PBS.
In addition, in the case where the chief ray of the projected light beam EL2 reflected from light shield MB is vertical with XY faces, projection optics mould
The angle of the first reflecting surface P3 of the first deflecting member 70 that first optical system 61 of group PLM has is set to, to carrying out self-bias
The projected light beam EL2 of beam splitter PBS of shaking is reflected, and makes the projected light beam EL2 after reflection incident through the first lens group 71
To the angle of the first concave mirror 72.Specifically, the first reflecting surface P3 of the first deflecting member 70 is set to substantially with second
Optical axis BX2 (XY faces) is at 45 °.
In addition, in the 4th implementation method, in the same manner as Fig. 2 above, when being observed in XZ faces, from light shield MB
X-direction of the central point of illumination region IR1 (and IR3, IR5) to the central point of illumination region IR2 (and IR4, IR6)
On air line distance be set as, with from copy substrate supporting cylinder 25 bearing-surface P2 substrate P on view field PA1 (and
PA3, PA5) central point to the central point of the second view field PA2 (and PA4, PA6) week over long distances substantially
It is equal.
In the exposure device U3c of Figure 21, slave control device 16 also controls the mobile device of light shield maintaining body 11 (to sweep
Retouch linear motor, actuator of fine motion of exposure etc.), light shield loading is synchronously driven with the rotation with substrate supporting cylinder 25
Platform 110.In the exposure device U3c of Figure 21, in the +X direction synchronizing moving to light shield MB and after carrying out scan exposure, it is necessary to
Enter to exercise the action (backrush) that light shield MB is back to the initial position of -X direction.Therefore, substrate supporting cylinder 25 is made with regulation speed
The continuous rotation of degree in the case that at the uniform velocity (peripheral speed Vp) constantly transports substrate P, the phase of rolling back action to be carried out in light shield MB
Between, pattern exposure is carried out not in substrate P, but panel figure dispersedly (discretely) is formed on the carrying direction of substrate P
Case.But, in actual applications, due to speed (peripheral speed Vp) and light shield by assuming the substrate P when scan exposure
The speed of MB is 50~100mm/s, if so driving light with the maximum speed of such as 500~1000mm/s when light shield MB backrush
Cover objective table 110, then can reduce the blank on direction is carried between the panel pattern being formed in substrate P.
Then, the projection image planes Sm and base of 22 pairs of patterns of the light shield of the exposure device U3c of the 4th implementation method of reference picture
The relation between plane of exposure Sp on plate P is illustrated.Figure 22 specifies movement and the substrate P of the projection image planes Sm of the pattern of light shield
Plane of exposure Sp movement between relation, equivalent to by projection image planes Sm illustrated in fig. 11 above and plane of exposure Sp it
Between relation situation in turn.I.e., in fig. 22, will be formed in the projection image planes Sm's of plane (radius of curvature is infinitely great)
Pattern image is transferred on the plane of exposure Sp of radius of curvature R p.
Herein, because light shield M is plane, so projection image planes Sm (optimum focusing face) is also plane.Therefore, Tu22Zhong
Projection image planes Sm equivalent to the datum level HP moved with the speed V that is shown in Fig. 7 above.On the other hand, in substrate P
Plane of exposure Sp is that radius of curvature is the barrel surface (being circular arc in ZX planes) of Rp in the same manner as being shown in Fig. 7 above.
In the present embodiment, if the angular speed of substrate holding cylinder 25 (plane of exposure Sp) is set into ω p, also with Fig. 7
Similarly, projection image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp is tangent in the position of plane KS, using Xp=RpSin (ω pt), obtains this
Point of contact Cp is the position Xp in the X direction of point Cp2 moved to after the plane of exposure Sp elapsed time t of Rp along radius.Herein,
ω pt are the anglec of rotation θ p on plane of exposure Sp from origin after elapsed time t with point of contact Cp as origin.Phase therewith
It is right, represent the point of contact Cp of projection image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp along flat projection image using Xm=Vt (wherein, V=Vm)
The position Xm of the point Cp0 that face Sm is moved to from after origin elapsed time t, therefore, in the same manner as each implementation method above, throwing
Projection error (departure or image displacement amount) is produced between image plane Sm and plane of exposure Sp.
If the projection error (departure or image displacement amount) is set into departure Δ 2, obtained using Δ 2=Xm-Xp
Departure Δ 2, obtains Δ 2=Vt-RpSin (θ p).The song of the departure Δ 2 in the characteristic and Fig. 8 A of the departure Δ 2
Line chart is identical, by the small difference of the peripheral speed Vp impartings of the translational speed V and plane of exposure Sp to projection image planes Sm, and above
Each implementation method similarly, the exposed width of the available view field PA in scan exposure can be expanded.For this reason, it may be necessary to
Make the speed (peripheral speed) on the surface of the small side of the radius of curvature in projection image planes Sm and plane of exposure Sp relatively slightly larger.At this
In implementation method, speed Vf during by the scan exposure of light shield MB is set to the benchmark speed for slightly smaller than being determined based on projection multiplying power β
Degree V, to cause that peripheral speed Vp small such as Fig. 8 C of speed V (peripheral speed Vm) of projection image face Sm only than plane of exposure Sp passes the imperial examinations at the provincial level
Rate of change α for exemplifying or so.
Herein, in the case of the exposure device U3c of present embodiment, the mathematical expression of the F (x) of first embodiment is replaced
It is changed to the mathematical expression of following F ' (X).
[mathematical expression 4]
Herein, exposure device U3c is by the way that formula F ' (X) to be applied to the mathematical expression of first embodiment above, and expires
The sufficient relation, can obtain the effect same with the respective embodiments described above.
Additionally, being protected using curved surface in the light shield maintaining body and base supporting mechanism of the exposure device of present embodiment
The side for holding is the first supporting member, and the side supported using curved surface or plane is the second supporting member.
More than, cylindric or plane light shield M is used in each implementation method, but even be based on CAD numbers
According to controlling DMD (digital mirror device) or SLM (spatial optical modulation element) etc., will corresponding with pattern light distribution via
Projection optical system (microlens array can also be included) be projected on plane of exposure Sp without light shield Exposure mode, it is also possible to obtain
Same effect.
In addition, in each implementation method, projection image planes Sm and the radius of curvature of the plane of exposure Sp of substrate P to pattern are carried out
Compare, by scan exposure, relatively somewhat increasing the peripheral speed of the small side of the radius of curvature in face Sm and face Sp,
Or the peripheral speed (or translational velocity) of the big side of radius of curvature relatively somewhat in reduction face Sm and face Sp,
The available exposed width in scan exposure can be expanded.By the small of relative peripheral speed (or translational velocity)
Difference which kind of degree be set to, be that can be changed according to image displacement amount Δ (difference component Δ, departure Δ 1, Δ 2) and resolution ratio Rs
's.For example, in using the evaluation assessment of evaluation of estimate Q1, Q2 of Figure 19 above, resolution ratio Rs is set to 2.09 μm, but this be by
The numerical aperture NA of projection optical system PL, exposure wavelength lambda, process constant k and determine.Actually it is exposed in substrate P
The minimum dimension (line width) of pattern is that the pattern being formed from light shield M is determined with projection multiplying power β.Assuming that should formed
In the pattern of the display panel in substrate P, as long as the actual size (actual linewidth) of minimum is 5 μm, as long as then will
The value of the actual linewidth obtains difference (the rate of change α in the range of the image displacement amount Δ for allowing as resolution ratio Rs
Deng).That is, according to structure (NA, λ) the resolution ratio Rs for determining or the pattern that should be transferred in substrate P by exposure device
Minimum dimension determine the rate of change α of the difference for expanding exposed width.
More than, by using the exposure device shown in each implementation method, implement scanning exposure method as described below.
That is, will be formed in bending to the pattern in face of cylindric light shield (M, MB) via projection optics with the radius of curvature for specifying
System PL (PLM) is projected to the surface (plane of exposure Sp) for being supported to cylindric or plane flexible base board P, and on one side
Light shield M is set to be moved with the speed that specifies along a face of bending, while making substrate P along being supported to cylindric or plane
The surface (Sp) of the substrate of shape is moved with the speed for specifying, so as to the projection of the pattern based on projection optical system on substrate
As being scanned exposure, when the scan exposure is carried out, if the projection image of the pattern based on projection optical system is most preferably being gathered
The radius of curvature of the projection image planes Sm formed under coke-like state is set to Rm (also comprising the situation of Rm=∞), will be supported to cylindrical shape
Or the radius of curvature of surface (plane of exposure) Sp of plane substrate P is set to Rp (also comprising the situation of Rp=∞), will pass through
The movement of light shield (M, MB) and be set to Vm along the translational speed of the mobile pattern image of projection image planes (Sm), by along substrate P
When the speed of the regulation of surface (plane of exposure) Sp is set to Vp, then it is set as Vm > Vp in the case of Rm < Rp, Rm > Rp's
In the case of be set as Vm < Vp.

Light shield information.If slave control device 16 obtains light shield information after changing, into step S103.
In step s 103, slave control device 16 is collected or calculated and expose according to the diameter of the light shield Ma after replacing
Part and the relevant data of the required condition of adjustment needed for the adjustment of electro-optical device U3d.For example, as the part needed for adjustment
It is light shield M position, lamp optical system IL, projection optical system PL, the rotary speed of light shield M, exposure width in the Z-axis direction
Degree (the circumferential width of illumination region IR), the position of encoder head EH1, EH2 or posture and aligming microscope GS1,
The position of GS2 or posture etc..In addition, in the present embodiment, due to the Pivot axle (first axle of the light shield Ma after replacing
AX1a skew) is produced in Z-direction compared with the pivot position of the light shield M before replacing, so needing so as to drive light shield
The mode that the output shaft of driving source (such as motor) of Ma can link with the rotating shaft of light shield Ma, adjusts in step s 103
(position skew) installation site of driving source in exposure device main body.Therefore, there is exposure device U3d basis to be installed on light shield
The diameter of the light shield Ma of maintaining body 11 at least adjusts the adjustment portion of the distance between first axle AX1 and base supporting mechanism,
The light shield maintaining body 11 installs one in diameter multiple light shields different from each other in replaceable mode, and around as regulation
Axis first axle AX1 rotation.The adjustment portion will be installed on the outer peripheral face of the light shield of light shield maintaining body 11 and by substrate branch
The interval held between the substrate P of mechanism's supporting is set in prespecified allowed band.
As described above, in the present embodiment, before and after the different light shield Ma of diameter is replaced by, the illumination in Z-direction
The position of visual field IR is constant.Thus, for example, in step S101, slave control device 16 is only replaced by the different light shield of diameter
Ma, after acquisition is changed in step s 102 after light shield information, light shield Ma is made in the Z-axis direction based on light shield information after the replacing
Illumination field of view IR position control with change before equal position.Additionally, before light shield Ma is replaced by, bottom control dress
Putting 16 can also obtain the information of light shield Ma from such as exposure information preservation table TBL, based on the information, be replaced by light shield Ma's
Opportunity, by the position that the position control of light shield Ma illumination field of view IR in the Z-axis direction is equal before with replacing.Hereinafter, to step
The example of the adjustment in rapid S103 is illustrated.
Figure 28 is the illuminating bundle and projected light beam roughly shown between the different light shield of diameter based on Fig. 5 above
State figure.If as described above, make illumination field of view IR positions in the Z-axis direction not change before and after light shield M is changed,
As shown in figure 25, become the position in the Pivot axle i.e. Z-direction of first axle AX1 of light shield M and light shield holding cylinder 21
Change.Specifically, the Pivot axle AX1a of the small light shield Ma of diameter more connects compared with the first axle AX1 of the light shield M being relatively large in diameter
Early work is the second axle AX2 of the Pivot axle of substrate supporting cylinder 25.
As shown in figure 28, even if in the case that light shield Ma after replacing is smaller than the diameter of the light shield M before replacing, also not changing
Become absolute positions of the intersection point Q1 at illumination region IR on light shield Ma (light cover P1a) center in the circumferential in XYZ coordinate
(the clear and definite position in exposure device).Therefore, as shown in figure 28, if while maintaining the illumination to the light shield M settings before replacing
The lighting condition of light beam EL1, i.e. maintaining makes each chief ray of illuminating bundle EL1 to radius (radius of curvature) Rm's in XZ faces
The 1/2 point inclined conditions of Q2, while irradiate illuminating bundle EL1 to the small light shield Ma of diameter, then by the illumination region on light shield Ma
Each chief ray of the projected light beam EL2a of IR reflections is changed into the state dissipated in XZ faces from state offset parallel to each other,
The direction of traveling also offsets.
Accordingly, it would be desirable to the illuminating bundle EL1 from lamp optical system IL is adjusted to be suitable to the illuminating bundle of light shield Ma
EL1.Therefore, in step s 103, the cylindrical lens 54 (reference picture 4) lamp optical system IL being had is changed to different
Power, the state of multiplying power telecentricity is adjusted to make each chief ray of illuminating bundle EL1 in XZ faces to the radius Rma of light shield Ma
1/2 position convergence.And, using drift angle prism (not shown), will be in as field of view IRa (illumination region IR)
The extended line that the state of the axle telecentricity of the intersection point Q1 of the heart is adjusted to the chief ray of the illuminating bundle EL1 passed through from intersection point Q1 passes through light
Cover the state of the central shaft AX1a of Ma.
In addition, the reflected beams of the adjustment from light shield Ma are the angle of projected light beam EL2a.In this case, due to shining
The shaft angle degree (angle in XZ faces of chief ray) of Mingguang City beam EL1 and projected light beam EL2a is according to the diameter (key light of light shield Ma
The center of line) and change, it is possible to being configured between the polarising beam splitter PBS and light shield Ma as shared light path
The drift angle prism prism of the not parallel wedge-like of outgoing plane (plane of incidence with) adjusts the angle of projected light beam EL2a.
In addition, in the case of the only angle of adjustment projected light beam EL2a, it is also possible to adjust projection optical system PL and had
Some polarizing member (the first reflecting surface P3 of such as the first deflecting member 70 or the 4th reflecting surface of the second deflecting member 80
P6 angle).Thus, in the case of being replaced by the different light shield Ma of diameter (in this example embodiment change after light shield Ma it is straight
Footpath than changing before it is small), each chief ray of the projected light beam EL2a that will can be reflected by light shield Ma is set to parallel to each other in XZ faces
Light.That is, even if different to the diameter after replacing light shield Ma, lamp optical system IL also adjust the photograph exposed on light shield Ma
The lighting condition of the illuminating bundle EL1 of area pellucida domain IR, with the projected light beam EL2a for causing to be reflected by the illumination region IR of light shield Ma
It is changed into the state of telecentricity.
In the case where above-mentioned adjustment is carried out, for example, being attached in the light optics module ILM of lamp optical system IL
The lens being arranged in the way of in can changing the different multiple cylindrical lenses 54 of power in light path change mechanism etc..
The lens can also be controlled to change mechanism to switch to the cylinder of best power according to the instruction from slave control device 16
Lens 54.Now, slave control device 16 switches cylindrical lens 54 based on the information of the diameter of the light shield Ma after changing.Separately
Outward, slave control device 16 can also be used to control for the drift angle rib between above-mentioned polarising beam splitter PBS and light shield Ma
The actuator that the angle (and the position in XZ faces) of the polarizing member in mirror or projection optics module PLM is adjusted,
To adjust the optical characteristics of the projected light beam EL2 reflected by light shield Ma.In this case, slave control device 16 is also based on more
The information of the diameter of the light shield Ma after changing adjusts the angle of drift angle prism or polarizing member.Additionally, cylindrical lens 54 is more
Change and the adjustment of drift angle prism etc. can be carried out by the operator of exposure device U3d.
Figure 29 is the figure of the configuration change for showing encoder head in the case where the different light shield of diameter is replaced by etc..
In adjustment in step s 103, as needed, also to encoder head EH1, EH2, aligming microscope GS1, GS2, light shield M sides
Focus measurement apparatus AFM and detection foreign matter foreign body detecting device CD be adjusted.As shown in figure 29, for example, from partly
Footpath (radius of curvature) for the light shield M and light shield holding cylinder 21 of Rm be replaced by that diameter is smaller and radius for Rma light shield Ma and
In the case of light shield holding cylinder 21a, encoder head EH1, EH2 around light shield M are configured at, aligming microscope GS1, GS2 are burnt
Point measurement apparatus AFM and foreign body detecting device CD needs to be reconfigured in around the light shield Ma that diameter diminishes, or adjustment
Posture.Thereby, it is possible to accurately measure position, the anglec of rotation of light shield Ma etc. of the alignment mark on light shield Ma.
In the example shown in Figure 29, by aligming microscope GS1, GS2, focus measurement apparatus AFM and foreign body detecting device
CD is newly configured at around the light shield Ma that diameter diminishes.In addition, encoder head EH1, EH2 in this example embodiment divides in XZ faces
Position, second projection optical system (even number) of the field of view IRa of the first projection optical system (odd number) are not configured at
Field of view IRb position near.Therefore, there is no need to after light shield is changed, encoder head is significantly changed in XZ faces
The position of EH1, EH2.
But, due to being replaced by light shield Ma, the periphery of the dial disc SD read by encoder head EH1, EH2 can be caused
The scale in face or be formed at together with light shield Ma light shield holding cylinder 21a outer peripheral face scale and each encoder head EH1,
Relative reading angular between EH2 changes.Therefore, by the stance adjustment of encoder head EH1, EH2 adequately with
Scale face is relative.Specifically, arrow N1, N2 as shown in figure 29 like that, according to the diameter in scale face, makes each read head EH1, EH2
(inclination) is rotated on its position.Thereby, it is possible to accurately draw the information of the anglec of rotation of light shield Ma.
When light shield Ma is replaced by, it is also possible to change dial disc simultaneously together with light shield Ma and light shield holding cylinder 21a
SD, the posture (inclination) of adjustment encoder head EH1, EH2, and adjust installation site etc..Scale can also be located at light shield Ma
Surface or light shield holding cylinder 21a outer peripheral face.The quarter read in encoder head EH1, EH2 when light shield Ma is replaced by
In the case that degree grid pitch in the circumferential is different from before replacing, the grid section of the scale after 16 pairs of replacings of slave control device
The corresponding relation between detected value away from encoder head EH1, EH2 is modified.Specifically, following conversion system is corrected
Number, the conversion coefficient represents the anglec of rotation that 1 counting of the digit counter of coded system is converted into the light shield Ma after changing
Displacement in the circumference of degree or light cover P1a is great value.
As shown with imaginary line in Figure 29, focus measurement apparatus AFM and foreign body detecting device CD can match somebody with somebody
The Pivot axle (first axle AX1 or first axle AX1a) of light shield M or light shield Ma underface in the Z-axis direction is placed in,
And configuration is between the illumination field of view IRa of the first projection optical system and the illumination field of view IRb of the second projection optical system, under
The light cover P1 or light cover P1a of side's detection light shield M or light shield Ma.Thereby, it is possible to reduce before and after light shield Ma is changed,
Surface from focus measurement apparatus AFM and foreign body detecting device CD to light shield M or the distance the surface of light shield Ma
Change.Therefore, having can be by the soft of the optical system or treatment of focus measurement apparatus AFM and foreign body detecting device CD
Amendment of part etc. carrys out corresponding possibility.In this case, it is also possible to do not change focus measurement apparatus AFM and inspection of foreign substance dress
Put the installation site of CD.
By being replaced by light shield Ma so that radius of curvature diminishes, it is thereby possible to the exposed width (base of view field PA
The scanning direction of plate P or the circumference of light shield Ma) in defocus change big.In this case it is necessary to adjust exposed width (including
Sloping portion), the illumination of lamp optical system IL or sweep speed (rotary speed of light shield Ma and the carrying speed of substrate P
Degree).These can be by adjusting perspective view diaphragm 63, or the light source for utilizing the adjustment light supply apparatus 13 of slave control device 16
The rotation of output, light shield holding cylinder 21a and substrate supporting cylinder 25 be adjusted.In such a situation it is preferred to same time-varying
More exposed width, illumination, sweep speed.
And, the position of the view field PA according to projection optical system PL, the relative position of projection optics module PLM are closed
It is and because the perimeter change of light shield Ma is, it is necessary to adjust light shield Ma multiplying powers in a rotational direction etc..For example, slave control device
The 16 picture skew optical components 65 that can have by the projection optics module PLM to projection optical system PL or multiplying power
The view field PA or light shield Ma that amendment optical component 66 etc. is controlled to adjust projection optical system PL are in rotation side
Upward multiplying power etc..
In step s 103, carrying out the adjustment of light shield Ma positions in the Z-axis direction, lamp optical system IL has
The adjustment of the optical component that the adjustment of optical component, projection optical system PL have and the tune of encoder head EH1, EH2
It is whole to wait mechanical adjustment.Having in these can utilize drive mechanism of slave control device 16 and adjustment etc. automatic (or half
Automatically the part for adjusting), also there is the part that the operator of exposure device U3d manually adjusts.In addition, in step S103
In, slave control device 16 is based on light shield information or exposure information etc. after replacing, changes the control for controlling exposure device U3d
Data (various parameters) processed etc..
In step s 103, exposure device U3d have adjusted based on light shield information after the replacing for obtaining in step s 102,
But the shape of the light shield Ma that can also be measured the measurement apparatus 18 as shown in Figure 23, size and installation site etc. are used as more
Change rear light shield information, and exposure device U3d is adjusted according to light shield information after the replacing.In this case, for example, the next control
Device processed 16, based on the light shield Ma of the measurement of measurement apparatus 18, carries out various adjustment after light shield Ma is replaced by.In addition, for behaviour
Part that author must adjust, change etc., for example, slave control device 16 will need part of adjustment etc. including in monitor etc.
On notify operator.The measured value adjustment exposure device U3d of the light shield Ma after based on replacing with reference to for example to draw
Light shield information after the replacing of the change of the environment such as temperature or humidity, exposure is adjusted therefore, it is possible to more conform to actual state
Electro-optical device U3d.In step s 103, at the end of the adjustment carried out because being replaced by light shield Ma, step S104 is entered into.
As described above, when the light shield of different diameters is replaced by, the optical system of the association in exposure device, machine sometimes
Construction system, each characteristic of detecting system change.In the present embodiment, in order to confirm as the exposure changed after light shield
The characteristic or performance of electro-optical device, set calibrating installation as shown in figure 30.Figure 30 is the figure of calibrating installation.Figure 31 is for saying
The figure of bright calibration.Exposure device U3d is in the state for being suitable for the light shield Ma after changing in step s 103, but by step
Calibrated in rapid S104, the state of the light shield Ma after the state of exposure device U3d is set to more suitable for replacing.Calibration is used
Calibrating installation 110 shown in Figure 30.Calibration in present embodiment is that slave control device 16 is carried out.Slave control device 16
The mark ALMR of ALMM and second are marked using the detection of calibrating installation 110 first, first mark ALMM is used as shown in figure 31
The adjustment mark on the surface of the light shield Ma kept located at light shield holding cylinder 21a, second mark ALMR is used as located at substrate

After by lens group 112, the photographing element 111 with shutter speed high is incident to, a frame sign of the shutter speed high
Camera time (sampling time) is extremely short, at 0.1~1 millisecond or so.Slave control device 16 pairs is defeated with from photographing element 111
Go out first mark ALMM picture and second mark ALMR as corresponding picture signal is parsed, based on its parsing knot
The fruit and measured value of each encoder head EH1, EH2, EN2, the EN3 of (during sampling) obtains the first mark ALMM and the when imaging
Relative position relation between two mark ALMR, the rotation to lamp optical system IL, projection optical system PL, light shield Ma is fast
Degree, the transporting velocity of substrate P or multiplying power etc. are adjusted, to cause that both relative positions are in the state of regulation.
As shown in figure 31, the first mark ALMM configurations are corresponding with each lamp optical system IL (IL1~IL6) each
The position that individual illumination region IR (IR1~IR6) overlaps across median plane CL be (two ends in the Y direction of each illumination region IR
Triangular part).Second mark ALMR configurations are in each view field corresponding with each projection optical system PL (PL1~PL6)
The position (triangular parts at the two ends in the Y-direction of each view field PA) that PA (PA1~PA6) is overlapped across median plane CL.In school
In standard, by the calibrating installation 110 of each setting in each projection optics module PLM according to the first row across median plane CL
The order of (odd number), secondary series (even number), receives the picture of the first picture for marking ALMM and the second mark ALMR successively.
As described above, in step s 103, based on being replaced by the adjustment (mainly mechanical adjustment) that light shield Ma is carried out
After end, the adjustment exposure device U3d of slave control device 16, to cause the substrate of the light shield Ma after changing and carrying substrate P
Position between supporting cylinder 25 is offset below allowed band.In this way, slave control device 16 at least marks ALMM using first
Picture and the picture of the second mark ALMR adjust exposure device U3d.Thus, based on the light shield Ma and substrate supporting from after replacing
The picture of the actual mark that cylinder 25 gets, is further modified to the error that the adjustment by machinery is not corrected completely.
Therefore, exposure device U3d can be exposed with appropriate and good precision using the light shield Ma after replacing.
In the above example, after light shield has been changed, exposure device U3d is mainly mechanically have adjusted, but changing
Adjustment after light shield is not limited to this.For example, in the difference very little of the diameter of the cylinder light shield for being mountable to exposure device U3d

The implementation method > of < the 7th
Figure 35 is the integrally-built figure of the exposure device for showing the 7th implementation method.Using Figure 35 to exposure device U3f
Illustrate.In order to avoid repeat record, illustrated only for the part different from above-mentioned implementation method, for reality
The same inscape mark of mode is applied to be illustrated with implementation method identical reference.Additionally, the 5th implementation method
Each structure of the exposure device U3e of exposure device U3d and the 6th implementation method can be applied to present embodiment.
Exposure device U3f is the substrate board treatment for implementing so-called proximity printing to substrate P.Exposure device U3f will
Light shield MA is set as several μm~tens μm or so, lamp optical system ILc with the gap (proximity gap) of substrate supporting cylinder 25f
Directly illuminating bundle EL is irradiated to substrate P to carry out noncontact exposure.Light shield MA is located at the surface of light shield holding cylinder 21f.This reality
The exposure device U3f for applying mode is used to transmit the light of light shield MA as the transmission-type light shield of projected light beam EL.In exposure device
In U3f, light shield holding cylinder 21f is by the cylindrical shape with certain thickness of the manufactures such as such as glass or quartz, outside it
Side face (barrel surface) forms the light cover of light shield MA.Although it is not shown, still exposure device U3f has as shown in figure 23 being used for
Change the replacing mechanism 150 of light shield MA.
In the present embodiment, substrate supporting cylinder 25f is by from the second drive division 26f with actuators such as electro-motors
The torque of supply and rotate.In the way of the direction of rotation with the second drive division 26f oppositely rotates, for example, by magnetic gear
A pair of driven rollers MGG, MGG for linking drive light shield holding cylinder 21f.Second drive division 26f rotates substrate supporting cylinder 25f, and
Driven roller MGG, MGG and light shield holding cylinder 21f are rotated, makes light shield holding cylinder 21f and substrate supporting cylinder 25f synchronizing movings (same
Step rotation).Because a part for substrate P is via a pair aerial turning-bar ATB1f, ATB2f, a pair of deflector rolls 27f, 28f are wound in
Substrate supporting cylinder 25f, so when substrate supporting cylinder 25f rotates, substrate P is synchronously handled upside down with light shield holding cylinder 21f.As this
Sample, a pair of driven rollers MGG, MGG as be provided with replaceable mode in the different multiple light shields of diameter each other, and
It is set to be worked around the light shield maintaining body that the axis (first axle AX1) of regulation is rotated.
Positions of the lamp optical system ILc between a pair of driven rollers MGG, MGG and in the outer peripheral face and substrate of light shield MA
The immediate position of substrate P that supporting cylinder 25f is supported, lateral substrate P projection extends to narrow in the Y direction from light shield MA
The illuminating bundle of gap-like.In proximity printing mode as such, due to exposure position (phase of the mask pattern in substrate P
When in view field PA) in the circumference of light shield MA at one, so when the different cylinder light shield of diameter is replaced by, as long as adjusting
The substrate supporting cylinder 25f of full circle cylinder light shield position in the Z-axis direction or supporting substrates P positions in the Z-axis direction, so that
Proximity gap remains setting.
Like this, exposure device U3f uses transmission-type light shield as light shield MA, and implements proximity printing to substrate P,
In this case, also in the same manner as exposure device U3, can be changed with the light shield MA of different-diameter.And, it is being replaced by difference
In the case of the light shield MA of diameter, exposure device U3f can be by carrying out the calibration same with exposure device U3, after replacing
Light shield MA and the substrate supporting cylinder 25f of carrying substrate P between relative position offset and adjusted (also including proximity gap)
In allowed band.Thus, based on the actual mark picture obtained from light shield MA and substrate supporting cylinder 25f, further critically
The error that amendment is not corrected completely by the adjustment of machinery, its result is that exposure device U3f can keep appropriate and good
Precision is exposed.
Further, since the lamp optical system ILc of exposure device U3f as shown in figure 35 will be elongated in the Y direction and in X
The illuminating bundle of the narrower width on direction (direction of rotation of light shield MA) is radiated at light shield MA with the numerical aperture (NA) for specifying
Light cover, even if so the diameter of the cylinder light shield installed is different, it is not required that to the illumination from lamp optical system ILc
The directional characteristic (slope of chief ray etc.) of light beam is substantially significantly adjusted.Here, can also be with according to light shield MA
Diameter (radius) side of width of the illuminating bundle of light cover in X-direction (direction of rotation of light shield MA) is exposed to change
Formula, in lamp optical system ILc set variable-width illuminated field diaphragm (variable window shade), or set only reduce or
Expand dioptric system (such as cylinder zoom lens of width of the illuminating bundle in X-direction (direction of rotation of light shield MA)
Deng).
In addition, in the exposure device U3f of Figure 35, substrate P is cylinder planar by substrate supporting cylinder 25f supportings, but
Can be supported to as the exposure device U3e of Figure 34 plane.When substrate P is supported to plane, and it is supported to
The situation of cylinder planar is compared, and can expand the illuminating bundle corresponding with the difference of the diameter of light shield MA in X-direction (light shield MA
Direction of rotation) on width adjusting range.Thereby, it is possible to permitting in the proximity gap corresponding with the diameter of light shield MA
Perhaps it is optimal by width adjustment of the illuminating bundle in X-direction (direction of rotation of light shield MA) in the range of, can makes to be transferred to base
The maintenance of the pattern quality (fidelity etc.) on plate P and productivity are optimized.In this case, variable window shade or cylinder become
Focus lens etc. are included in the diameter of the light shield MA according to transmission-type come in the adjustment portion of the width for adjusting illuminating bundle.
In each implementation method more than, there is certain scope in the diameter for being mountable to the cylinder light shield of exposure device.
For example, in the exposure device for line width being the projection optical system that 2 μm~3 μm or so of fine pattern is projected,
The width of the depth of focus DOF of the projection optical system is tens μm or so very narrow, the in addition focusing in projection optical system
The scope of adjustment typically also can be very narrow.For this exposure device, it is difficult to install diameter relative to the diameter for being defined as specification
With the cylinder light shield of millimeter Unit alteration.Here, in exposure device side, from initially just with the diameter change phase with cylinder light shield
In the case that corresponding mode makes each several part, each mechanism have larger adjusting range, determined on the basis of the adjusting range
The diameter range of the cylinder light shield that can be installed surely.In addition, in the exposure device close to mode as shown in figure 35, as long as light
A part for outer peripheral face and the gap of substrate P for covering MA converge on the scope of regulation, if the supporting device of cylinder light shield is
Can corresponding structure, then when diameter be 0.5 times, 1.5 times, 2 times ... when, even if largely different cylinder light shields also can
It is enough to install.
