INSTRUCTIONS: [Technical Field to Be Invented by the Invention] The present invention relates to an exposure apparatus which is used in the field of semiconductors. [Prior Art] According to the exposure apparatus, the exposure apparatus can be applied to a semiconductor process. For example, when manufacturing a semiconductor wafer, various circuit layouts on the wafer require hundreds of film processes, photolithography processes, ion doping processes, and lithography. The process is formed. Wherein 'in the exposure and development process, the surface of the semiconductor wafer is first coated with a layer of photoresist, and then the light is irradiated by the light source to map the circuit pattern of the mask onto the photoresist layer' to make the photoresist layer chemistry The nature changes due to the ..., the radiation of the light source, and then the photoresist is used to remove the photoresist or the unexposed photoresist that is irradiated by the light source from the wafer to form a line layout corresponding to the mask, and further Complete the pattern transfer. Referring to FIG. 1 , which is a schematic diagram of a mechanism of a conventional exposure apparatus, the mechanism corresponding to the exposure light source includes: a housing 1 〇; a carrier frame 12 for supporting the housing 10, including a pedestal 14 (may be mobile or fixed) 'to support - the object to be exposed 16 (for example: semiconductor wafer), the reticle 8 匕 3 - the mobile stage ', set at the corresponding position of the object to be exposed ^ The square direction ' can be adjusted through a one-bit system; thereby, the exposure light source 20' emitted by a single-lamp parallel light source group generates the desired wavelength and energy resignation light source by using the single-light parallel light source group, and the bearing 12 on the base 200916970 14 to be exposed 16 'Using the alignment system to accurately align the object to be exposed 16 with the reticle 18' after the alignment is completed, the exposure light source 20 of the single-light parallel light source group is exposed . Clearly refer to the 2 ® 'the display diagram of the front-light single-light parallel light miscellaneous, which is set inside the outer casing 1〇, including: a bulb 22; an elliptical mirror 24, the ribs are limited to the light of the bulb 22 The direction and range of the shot are the first light source 26; a first mirror 28 for receiving the first light source 26, and changing the illumination angle of the first light source 26 to the second light source 3; a compound eye (fry- The device 32 is configured to receive the second light source 3 〇 through the complex eye-eyes 32 to homogenize the light to form a third light source such as a second mirror 36 ′ The third light source 34, and changing the illumination slit of the third light source 34 to be the fourth light source 38; and the convex lens 4Q receives the fourth light source 38 to correct the light to the required parallel light and area, and project The required exposure light source 2G. In short, the action is that the light bulb is transmitted through the elliptical mirror 24 and the light is directed to the compound eye device by the first mirror 28 to make the light uniform, and the second mirror 36 will change the forward direction of the front. Wei 40 will correct the required light and area size of the handle, and project the required exposure light source 2〇. Although the aforementioned conventional exposure apparatus has its own touch on the wire, it still has the disadvantages of the T column: 1. If the exposure energy becomes large, 'a large wattage (usually up to the number of 200916970 kw) bulb is used as the light source, and The heat energy generated by the large wattage bulb is quite high, so it needs to be cooled by another water cooling system, resulting in high equipment cost. Second, the use of large wattage bulbs, the life of the bulb is quite short, easily lead to increased production costs. Third, the use of a single large wattage bulb, when its energy is reduced, can only be replaced by the way of replacing the bulb, so the replacement frequency is high. As mentioned above, the traditional exposure equipment still needs to purchase water cooling system for heat dissipation, and the lamp life is quite short. Therefore, a solution technology is still needed to improve the aforementioned deficiency. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide an exposure apparatus for use in the field of semiconductor fabrication to improve the low life of conventional lamps and to rely on the use of water-cooling heat dissipation systems to reduce production costs.
