Then, the processing sequence of the treatment system of this embodiment of expression in the schema of Fig. 6.
(1) at first, in step S101, TIP unit, alignment mark, parameter information (data input operation).Here, alignment mark is preserved as DB usually.
(2) then, in step S102, according to panel unit and parameter information, the panel reticule data output function 111a that generates mechanism 111 through reticule data generates reticle unit A data (reticle A data generate operation).
(3) here; In step S103; Owing on reticle unit A, be formed with a plurality of panel units, thereby the numerical value of glass unit size is carried out with the division is the numerical operation of main body, the exposure irradiation zone on the identification reticle unit A (exposure irradiation zone identification operation).Usually discern a plurality of exposure irradiation zone (describing in detail below) here.Here, the exposure irradiation zone of being identified for example is four kinds of AA/AB/AC/AD.The generation in this exposure irradiation zone is undertaken by the exposure irradiation data systematic function 112f that the glass unit data generate mechanism 112.
(4) then, in step S104, select an exposure irradiation zone, select exposure irradiation zone AA (operation is selected in the exposure irradiation zone) here.
(5) in step S105, on glass unit, dispose (exposure irradiation arrangement step) as exposure irradiation.Usually form the array configuration.Center with respect to glass unit is configured with positive and negative X value, Y value.
(6) then, in step S106, but according to specifying by the specified exposure range of parameter, the exposure irradiation zone AA that inspection is disposed whether can on manufacturing installation, make public (but exposure range inspection operation).The glass unit data output function 112a that generates mechanism 112 through the glass unit data outputs on the glass unit.
(7) then, in step S107, but judge whether the exposure range of the panel unit on the glass unit is all filled up (the glass unit end exposure is judged operation).
But under the situation that the exposure range of the panel unit on the glass unit is not all filled up; Return step S104 once more, also to exposure irradiation zone AB, AC, AD the carries out processing (exposure irradiation zone select repetition operation) identical with the situation of exposure irradiation zone AA.
In this process, of the back literary composition, the number computing function 112c that generates mechanism 112 through the glass unit data calculates the number that is configured in the panel unit on the glass unit, and 112d calculates exposure frequency through the exposure frequency computing function.
(8) but under the situation that the exposure range of the panel unit on the glass unit is all filled up; Get into step S108; Utilization is by alignment mark data and the specified alignment mark irradiation of parameter value, with alignment mark exposure irradiation data (it is called irradiation B) with respect to the central value of glass unit with array configuration (alignment mark arrangement step).
(9) then,, utilize reticule data to generate the aligning reticule data output function 111b of mechanism 111, on reticle, generate the data of shining B, generate reticle unit B data (reticle unit B data generate operation) at step S109.
(10) then, at step S110, but also the alignment mark that is generated by reticle unit B data is carried out the inspection (but alignment mark exposure range inspection operation) of exposure range.
(11) and; At step S111; With respect to the integral body in each the exposure irradiation zone that on glass unit, forms like this, the remainder computing function 112f that generates mechanism 112 through the glass unit data carries out the marginal check (marginal check operation) by the specified glass unit of parameter.
(12) last, in step S112, output is generated the data of the glass unit data output function 112a generation of mechanism 112 by the glass unit data.The technique information output function 112b that generates mechanism 112 through the glass unit data here, has also exported the technique information (design result output operation) of each exposure irradiation configuration data of recording when generating glass unit etc.
Wherein, each operation of more than enumerating can be stored in the program that the package 121 in the storing mechanism 12 comprised and realizes through being carried out by arithmetic processing section 11.
The program corresponding with each operation, but but there are the data entry program shown in the technical scheme 11, reticle unit A data generator, exposure irradiation zone recognizer, exposure irradiation zone select procedure, exposure irradiation configurator exposure range test routine, glass unit end exposure determining program, exposure irradiation zone to select repetitive routine, alignment mark configurator, reticle unit B data generator, alignment mark exposure range test routine, marginal check program and design result written-out program.
Fig. 7 is that expression utilizes panel reticule data output function 111a that reticule data generates mechanism 111 via the explanatory view that is generated the data handling procedure of glass unit data by panel unit abc designated parameters and the reticle unit A that is generated.
At first, generate reticle unit A according to configuration condition by panel unit abc designated parameters.On reticle unit A, form a plurality of panel units here.
Then, with the size of specified glass unit size, at first calculate the exposure frequency of exposure irradiation zone AA shown in Figure 7 divided by the panel unit group that on the reticle unit A that is generated, forms.
Then, also carry out identical division arithmetic, obtain exposure irradiation zone AB for the remainder on the glass unit that obtains through the division arithmetic result.Obtain exposure irradiation zone AC and AD identically.From such irradiation area that exposes completely, utilization is carried out the resulting remainder of division arithmetic successively and is calculated the exposure irradiation zone of zonule and discern (detailed content that these method of calculation described in literary composition in the back).
Here, the generation in a plurality of exposure irradiation zone is carried out through the exposure irradiation data systematic function 112e that the glass unit data generate mechanism 112, and the calculating of the exposure frequency in each exposure irradiation zone is carried out through exposure frequency computing function 112d.
Thus; To each exposure irradiation area marking title; The technique information output function 112b that generates mechanism 112 through the glass unit data generates and the output technique information, and wherein above-mentioned technique information has been put down in writing the generation operation of utilizing the glass unit that allocation position puts down in writing apart from the X value of center of glass and Y value.
Above-mentioned allocation position has been specified apart from the allocation position at glass unit center usually.
And, the implication on the size of the glass unit that expression is explained by Fig. 4 (3) and Fig. 4 (4) in Fig. 7 and the top at glass unit edge, bottom, the right, the left side.After generating glass unit, from the width of glass unit and the zone after highly deducting the edge on each limit be the actual scope that allows to exist the glass unit data.Above-mentioned glass unit edge carries out computing through the remainder computing function 112f that the glass unit data generate mechanism 112.
Fig. 8 is expression generates mechanism 111 through reticule data aligning reticule data output function 111b; On glass unit, form B exposure irradiation zone according to the alignment mark data, the reticle unit B data that generate the reticle unit B then generate the explanatory view of operation.In the configuration in irradiation B zone, stipulate through the parameter shown in Fig. 4 (7).
About alignment mark, at first generate the data in the glass unit after, generate the reticle unit B of necessary alignment mark.This be because, because alignment mark is by the stockization, and exist multiple, thereby data generate be fit in the operation be to confirm to construct the alignment mark of glass unit on the indicating meter after regeneration reticle unit B.
Also represent X spacing and Y spacing here, as the alignment mark parameter shown in Fig. 4 (7).
The reticle type shown in Fig. 9 presentation graphs 4 (5) and the example of size.
Rectangle and circle are arranged in the reticle type.Expression width and height are represented radius in circle in rectangle.The reticle type that is used to make flat-panel monitor is not limited to circle, and rectangle is also arranged.This is that rectangular situation is more manageable because in the management of reticle itself.
If in certain area the panel unit of the maximum numbers of configuration, then circle is the most suitable, but in fact about up and down outstanding panel unit in exposure irradiation is handled, be difficult for using, thereby in most cases rectangle just is enough to.This is because glass shape is a rectangle, and this point and silicon chip are that the semiconductor exposure of circle is different.
Figure 10 is the technique information respectively chart of the part of the coordinate of irradiation partly that expression is generated by reticle unit A.
AA, AB, AC, AD are the regional title of exposure irradiation that is generated, and record separately X value and Y value apart from the glass unit center therein.This is the part with character file output.
In this document, record and narrate irradiation B exposure information by the irradiation title with apart from the X value and the Y value of center of glass equally as the alignment mark data.The technique information of here describing records the exposure irradiation number of times, can calculate the required time of exposure thus.Can calculate the exposure apparatus cost of each panel unit that can obtain from glass unit thus.
Figure 11 is an explanatory view of representing to be used for the data qualification of calculation exposure irradiation area about reticle unit A.Importantly, fix reticle size and glass size here, through the parameter appointment.
Behind definite the two numerical value, according to how making the panel unit rotation generate reticle unit A, how extract out cost and exposure-processed time (result can calculate cost) that concentrated exposure irradiation zone calculates each panel.
Glass size in most cases is fixed in the mill, can the exposure-processed time which kind of degree to change to confirm best reticle size with when changing the reticle cell size.
In general, when glass size and reticle size were big, manufacturing unit price and exposure-processed time all reduced.Therefore; Here; Comprise making panel unit rotation and generating the unitary situation of reticle, can confirm to make the unitary cost of reticle (it depends on the size of reticle) and exposure-processed time (it also depends on the size of reticle) and by the cost (it depends on the size of glass) of each panel unit of glass manufacturing.
Figure 12 is the explanatory view of the computation sequence in the expression exposure irradiation zone of being undertaken by the reticle unit.Here, expression is an exposure irradiation data computing order through the segment set cooperation that remainder calculates the panel unit that will on reticle unit A, form.
At first, the size (here for also comprising the size in gap, X spacing shown in Fig. 3 (1) and Y spacing) of establishing panel unit is X0, Y0, and the maximum of the unitary panel unit set of reticle is of a size of X1, Y1, and the size of glass unit is X2, Y2.
At first, confirming of exposure irradiation group confirmed from big beginning for the first time, uses (X2, Y2) divided by (X1, Y1) then.As a result, confirm to organize number of times Xkaisu1 and the Ykaisu1 that makes public with (X1, Y1), and, confirm remainder Xamari1 and Yamair1.Confirm exposure irradiation thus, this exposure irradiation title is confirmed as AA, confirm that AA partly gathers and multiplicity.
Then, the exposure irradiation zone is deducted the part (X1-X0) of a panel unit and carry out division arithmetic and calculate Xamari2 with respect to Xamari1.The division arithmetic result is Xkaisu2, and it confirms the exposure irradiation zone AB as the next section set as the multiplicity to exposure irradiation AB.Wherein, because 2 (n-1) >=n, thereby Xkaisu n (n>2 positive integer) is always 1 or 0.
If carry out identical processing along the Y direction, then can calculate zone and the multiplicity of part set AC, calculate zone and the multiplicity of exposure irradiation AD, the unitary sum of reticle on the glass unit at last.When calculating multiplicity, use the glass unit data to generate the exposure frequency computing function 112d of mechanism 112.
When calculating section set and multiplicity, also calculate X coordinate and Y coordinate simultaneously here, apart from center of glass.And multiplicity also can be 1 time.
Judge whether the exposure irradiation zone sets up, the condition that under invalid situation, is displaced downwardly to less exposure irradiation zone is: the numerical value that is equivalent to XkaisuM or YkaisuN is zero.
X remainder and Y remainder all ratio panels unit are final termination condition for a short time.In the calculating of remainder, use the glass unit data to generate the remainder computing function 112f of mechanism 112.And behind definite exposure irradiation zone, the number computing function 112c that generates mechanism 112 through the glass unit data calculates the unitary sum of the reticle that on glass unit, forms.
Here, the order that moves down is for make up directions X and the Y direction is carried out successively.Its result can consider to be chosen in the rectangle set of the panel unit in the rectangular combination that reticle unit A goes up the whole adjacency that form.And, utilize division arithmetic and remainder to be illustrated here, repeat the processing that subtraction also can be equal to fully.Like this, through extracting bigger exposure irradiation zone in the set of the panel unit that on reticle unit A, forms out, have the effect that exposure-processed time of making in the exposure apparatus shortens, can be described as very important regional extraction method.
Figure 13 is the programflow chart of aforementioned calculation content.
In this program, obtain the exposure irradiation of reticle unit A and partly gather and multiplicity AMN.Particular content is: big or small X1, the Y1 of A begin from the reticle unit, and the multiplicity towards directions X of establishing in the size of X1 is M, and the multiplicity towards the Y direction in the Y1 size is N, carry out initial value and start, and dwindle the exposure area successively.
Dwindling of exposure area, for glass unit be zone with remainder part as object, be that zone with the part that deducts a panel unit is as object for the reticle unit.M and N are multiplicity, are the multiplicity for the maximum reticle unit area of this moment.Therefore, also can be M=1, N=1.
After confirming zone and multiplicity M and N, glassy zone deducts by the part of exposure area (rewriting of X2, Y2), and the reticle unit area also deducts a panel unit partly (rewriting of X1, Y1), calculates.Importantly, when the exposure irradiation of confirming reticle unit A is partly gathered with multiplicity AMN, it is disposed with array according to the configuration coordinate apart from center of glass.
Here, final remaining remainder in uniformly distributing up and down, is disposed with array according to the coordinate apart from center of glass.About this processing, also identical for the irradiation B in the alignment mark data.When using program shown in Figure 13 like this, the exposure irradiation number of times can be calculated, the required time of exposure can also be calculated.
Figure 13 is described in more detail.
At first, in step S201, confirm on the glass unit size, whether enough to process panel unit (X0>X2, Y0>Y2).
Then, in step S202, utilize X1, the Y1 of reticle unit A, calculate the maximum number of repetitions M and maximum number of repetitions N highly of the width of this reticle unit A.
And,, obtain exposure frequency T=MN according to maximum number of repetitions M that in step S203, obtains and N.Then in step S204, the irradiation number of times W of width is set at W=M.The processing of this moment is carried out through the exposure frequency computing function 112d that the glass unit data generate mechanism 112.
Then, in step S205,, X2 is replaced to the remainder of width as X2=(X2-X1*M).The processing of this moment is carried out through the remainder computing function 112f that the glass unit data generate mechanism 112.
Then, in step S206,, X1 is deducted the part of the width that is equivalent to a panel unit as X1=(X1-X0).At this moment, judge that in step S207 whether X1 is greater than 0.Owing to become 0 or 0 when following, can not continue the width that reduces to shine, thereby this entering deducts step S212 highly.
Then, greater than 0 o'clock, whether the remainder X2 that judges width at step S208 was greater than the width X1 of irradiation current at X1.
X2 is during greater than X1; In step S209; The remainder X2 of width is reduced irradiating width X1, X2=(X2-X1), the irradiation number of times W with width in step S210 increases by 1; In step S211, maximum exposure is shone the amount that number of times T increases the irradiation times N that is equivalent to current short transverse, return step S206.In step S208, when the remainder X2 of width is big unlike the width X1 of irradiation current, directly return step S206.
Repeat step, become below 0 or 0 until the remainder X2 of width from step S206 to step S211.
The remainder X2 of width becomes 0 or 0 when following, at step S212, as Y=(Y2-Y1*N), height Y2 is replaced with the remainder of height.Then in step S213, whether the unitary height Y0 of ratio panels is little to judge the remainder Y2 of this height.Under its little situation, get into step S219.
Under its big situation, in step S214,, Y1 is deducted the amount of the height that is equivalent to a panel unit as Y1=(Y1-Y0).At this moment, judge that in step S215 whether Y1 is greater than 0.Owing to become 0 or 0 when following, can not continue the width that reduces to shine, thereby finish behind the entering step S219.
Then, at Y1 greater than 0 o'clock, at the remainder Y2 of step S216 decision height whether greater than the height Y1 of irradiation current.
When bigger than it, in step S217, as Y2=(Y2-Y1), the remainder Y2 minimizing irradiation height Y1 with height shines the amount that number of times T increases the irradiation number of times W that is equivalent to current width with maximum exposure in step S218, return step S214.In step S216, the remainder Y2 of height directly returns step S214 when big unlike the height Y1 of irradiation current.
In step S215; When Y1 becomes 0 or 0 when following; Or in step S201, step S213, being entering step S219 under the situation of " being ", final remaining remainder part is finished each exposure irradiation area configurations by uniformly distributing up and down in the position apart from center of glass.
Carrying out above-mentioned a series of process result is that final exposure frequency is added among the T.
