Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the alteration of focal depth and the fine adjustment of image formation characteristics of an image contrast and the like, by making variable the stops of both illumination optical system and projection optical system, and by changing the respective numerical apertures of these optical systems as desired. CONSTITUTION:A local remote selection switch 91 provided on a stop control unit 9 is switched over onto the remote side, and a necessary NA value is keyed in by an input keyboard 71 of a console 7. Then the NA value is stored in a memory 72 of the console 7 and transmitted to a control box 8. The value is converted by a main body control CPU 81 into an instruction voltage for driving a stop mechanism which corresponds to the NA value, and it is inputted to driving circuits 54 and 34 to drive actuators 52 and 32. Actual amounts of driving are fed back to the driving circuits 54 and 34 by the respective detection sensors 53 and 33 of an illumination optical system 5 and a projection optical system 3, and stops are positioned on the basis of these amounts. Fine image formation performance such as an image contrast can also be obtained by controlling stop diameters of both the projection optical system and the illumination optical system and by varying a value of sigma which i defined by sigma=NA of illumination optical system/NA of projection lens.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, the apertures of both the illumination optical system and the projection optical system are made variable, and the numerical aperture of each of these optical systems is changed as desired. For example, the numerical aperture of the illumination optical system should be controlled so that the ratio (0) between the numerical aperture of the illumination optical system and the numerical aperture of the projection optical system is constant for a desired depth of focus (numerical aperture of the projection optical system). For example, an arbitrary depth of focus can be set according to the process without adversely affecting imaging performance such as image contrast and distortion. Furthermore, by changing the σ value, it is also possible to subtly change imaging performance such as image contrast.
