The alignment film is provided with alignment characteristics for adjusting the alignment direction of the liquid crystal. The present invention particularly relates to an exposure apparatus and an exposure method of an alignment film using a photomask (hereinafter referred to as "photomask") on one substrate. A plurality of different alignment regions are formed in the alignment film. [Prior Art] A liquid crystal display device of an active matrix driving type is fabricated by encapsulating a liquid crystal between a thin film transistor (TFT) substrate and a color filter substrate, in a TFT substrate And a surface of the color filter substrate to form an alignment film for adjusting the alignment direction of the liquid crystal. Conventionally, the "rubbing method" which wipes the surface of the alignment film by a rubbing method, which causes the alignment film to have an alignment characteristic that adjusts the alignment direction of the liquid crystal, is performed by a "rubbing method". However, in recent years, the "photo-alignment method" has been developed, which irradiates linearly polarized ultraviolet light to an alignment film of a polymer compound containing polyimine or the like to selectively make the polarization direction high. The molecular chain reacts to produce anisotropy. Patent Document 1 discloses a technique for increasing the viewing angle of a liquid crystal display device, improving display quality, and improving contrast, and forming a substrate on a pair of substrates sandwiching a liquid crystal layer. The alignment film on the 201235795 board is divided into pretilt directions that differ by approximately 180. The two alignment regions are formed so that the two substrates are bonded to each other so that the boundary between the alignment regions on one substrate and the alignment region on the other substrate are substantially orthogonal to each other, thereby forming four regions in the alignment state. [Prior Art Document] [Patent Document 1] As disclosed in Patent Document 1, in order to form a plurality of different alignment regions in an alignment film on one substrate, it is necessary to The linearly polarized ultraviolet light is obliquely illuminated from different directions to each of the alignment regions.

In the proximity exposure apparatus, a slight gap (proximity gap) is provided between the reticle and the substrate, and a pattern of the reticle is transferred to the substrate. For an exposure apparatus that exposes an alignment film, if the exposure beam is irradiated obliquely from the exposure beam irradiation device to the photomask using the same configuration as that of the proximity exposure device, the area through which the exposure beam passes is greatly enlarged. Need a lot of space inside. Further, the exposure beam irradiation device used in the conventional proximity exposure apparatus cannot change the irradiation direction of the exposure beam. Therefore, in order to form a plurality of different alignment regions in the alignment film on one substrate, it is necessary to know 201235795 4a> Upper /X ▲ When each exposure area is exposed, the substrate is removed from the chuck and the orientation of the substrate is rotated. Therefore, there is a problem that the tact time becomes long and the throughput decreases.

In addition, depending on the properties of the alignment film, etc., when the pretilt direction / σ is / and the direction of the exposure beam is opposite, the exposure beam irradiated from the reticle 2 to the substrate 1 is used. The alignment film of the substrate i is caused to have the following 201235795 39522pif alignment characteristic, which is to make the surface oblique direction on the right side of (4). In addition, as shown in FIG. 4(c), the exposure from the exposure beam irradiation device is irradiated vertically.
