Description of the invention (4) The data (size data) is transmitted to the control section 7. The following describes the operation of transferring the pattern image of the photomask M onto the substrate W by the exposure device 1 having such a structure. Before the exposure, the illuminance sensor 22 is driven by the illuminance sensor driving unit 21 in the Y direction, and at the same time, the carriage 9 is driven in the X direction. Accordingly, the illuminance sensor 22 scans under each of the projection areas Pa to Pg corresponding to the projection optical systems 5a to 5g. At this time, the illuminance of the substrate w is detected by the illuminance sensor 22. The illumination detection signals of the projection areas Pa to Pg on the substrate W detected by the illumination sensor 22 are transmitted to the control unit 7.

These exposure lights pass through the scanned reticle M, and are respectively equipped with projection optical systems corresponding to each of the illumination optical systems 4a to 4g. 16 This paper size is in accordance with the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm)- ---------- ^ -------- ^ --------- (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) 473819 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention ( , T) 5a to 5g, the pattern image of the mask M is imaged on a projection area Pa to Pg different from the substrate W scanned from the mask M. As a result, the pattern image formed on the photomask M is transferred to the substrate W. In this way, the substrate W is exposed once in a state where the illuminance of each projection area Pa to Pg is controlled to be uniform. In a state where the illuminance of each projection area Pa to Pg is uniform, the substrate W after the exposure processing is subjected to development processing. After the development process is completed, the substrate W is measured with a line width measuring machine 30 for the pattern line widths formed in each projection area Pa to Pg. The line width measuring machine 30 transmits the measured line width data to the control section 7. The control unit 7 adjusts the exposure light irradiation amount of each of the illumination optical systems 4a to 4g based on the measurement result of the line width measuring machine 30. The control unit 7 measures the pattern size of each projection area Pa to Pg formed on the substrate W in advance corresponding to each projection area Pa to Pg with a line width measuring machine 30, and adjusts each of the illumination optical systems 4a to 4g based on the measurement results. The exposure light irradiation amount makes the pattern line width of each projection area Pa ~ Pg reach the target 此时. At this time, the control unit 7 is based on the change amount of the exposure light irradiation amount and the line width change amount (size of the pattern image) obtained in advance. The amount of change in exposure) is adjusted by the exposure light irradiation amount of the illumination optical systems 4a to 4g. In this case, after the exposure light irradiation amount of the illumination optical system 4a to 4g is arbitrarily changed, the data of the line width change amount of the pattern image on the substrate W is mostly obtained in advance, and adjusted based on the majority of the data (data sheet) The exposure light irradiation amount of the illumination optical systems 4a to 4g is such that the measurement result of the line width measuring machine 30 is consistent with the target line (target line width). 17 (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) Packing -------- Ordered by the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economy, Employees' Cooperatives Printed on this paper Standards applicable to Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) 473819 Printed by the Consumers ’Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 V. Description of the invention () The relationship between the change in the amount of illumination of the illumination optical system 4 and the change in the line width of the pattern image of the substrate W is acceptable. It is set in advance according to the same result of the experiment of the line width change amount of the pattern image of the substrate W relative to the change amount of the illuminating optical system 4 according to the illumination optical system 4. Alternatively, the relationship between the change amount of the exposure light exposure amount of the illumination light system 4a to 4g and the line width change amount of the pattern image of the substrate W relative to the data table can be obtained in a relational formula, and According to this relational expression, the exposure light irradiation amounts of the illumination optical systems 4a to 4g are adjusted based on the measurement results of the line width measuring machine 30. That is, data on most conditions regarding the relationship between the amount of change in the irradiation amount and the amount of change in the line width are obtained, and the relational expression is obtained by adjusting the data. The control unit 7 adjusts and adjusts the exposure light exposure amount of the illumination optical system 4a to 4g according to the above-mentioned data table or relational expression so that the line width of the pattern image on the substrate W reaches the target line width. That is, according to the measurement result of the line width measuring machine 30 and the aforementioned data table or relational expression, the pattern line width of each projection area Pa ~ Pg reaches the target 値, specifically, the pattern line width of the projection area Pa ~ Pg is uniform, The detector 20 attached to the illumination optical systems 4a to 4g detects the exposure light exposure amount, and the control unit 7 adjusts the output of each illumination optical system 4a to 4g (that is, the power source 11a of the light source 11). Next, after the adjustment of the exposure light irradiation amount is completed, the substrate W is subjected to exposure processing again. In this way, since the pattern line width (size) formed on the substrate W is measured and the exposure light irradiation amount of each illumination optical system 4a to 4g is independently adjusted according to the measurement result, the pattern line width of each projection area Pa to Pg is uniform, Therefore, 18 paper sizes are applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) ----------- Awt -------- Order ------- -(Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) 473819 A7 _ B7 printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 5. Description of the invention (A) The pattern of most of the projection areas Pa ~ Pg formed on the substrate The line width can be reliably uniformized. That is, for example, even if the exposure light irradiation amount of each of the illumination optical systems 4a to 4g is set to be uniform, the characteristics of the lens systems starting with the projection optical system 5 are different, so that the line width formed on the substrate W may vary depending on each There may be a difference in the projection areas Pa to Pg. However, 'the pattern line width of each projection area Pa to Pg formed on the substrate W is directly measured by exposure and development processing, and the irradiation amount of each illumination optical system 4a to 4g is independently adjusted based on the measurement results. Even if there is a difference in characteristics of each lens system or each device starting from the projection optical system 5 or a difference in resist sensitivity, the pattern line width of each projection area Pa to Pg of the substrate W can be surely uniformized. Therefore, the productivity of the manufacturing substrate W can be improved. Next, the relationship between the change amount of the exposure light irradiation amount of the illumination optical system 4 and the line width change amount of the pattern image formed on the substrate W is obtained in advance in a relational formula or in a data table manner, and according to the relationship formula By adjusting the exposure light irradiation amount of the illumination optical systems 4a to 4g, the most appropriate exposure amount of the illumination optical systems 4a to 4g can be efficiently set. Also, the relational expression is obtained based on the adjustment of the data of the majority of the line width change amount that changes with the change amount of the irradiation amount.

When measuring the line width of the substrate W with the line width measuring machine 30, The illuminance sensor 22 measures the amount of exposure light exposure to each projection area Pa to Pg of the substrate W in advance, and uniformizes the illuminance of each projection area Pa to pg in advance, thereby measuring the transmission line width. The line width measurement (dimension measurement) of the machine 30 can expose the substrate W at a uniform illuminance. Therefore, the line width measurement can be performed efficiently. That is, the projection areas Pa to Pg on the substrate W can be made in advance. In a state where the exposure light is uniformized, the pattern line width of each projection area Pa ~ Pg can be made uniform. Therefore, the line width measurement of each projection area Pa ~ Pg on the substrate W of the line width measuring machine 30 can achieve a relatively The processing time is short and efficient.

It is formed in The pattern shape 'on the substrate W is not limited to those having a line width. For example, this exposure device 1' can also be applied to the production of contact holes. Although the contact holes formed on the substrate for a pattern of a liquid crystal display element must be formed on the substrate It has a uniform size "but" is manufactured by the exposure method and exposure device of the present embodiment, and even if the pattern shape is a hole shape, the pattern shapes of most projection areas can be made uniform.

Here, the same reference numerals are used for the same or equivalent components as those in the first embodiment, and the description is simplified or omitted. In the first embodiment, the size of each pattern corresponding to each projection area Pa to Pg formed on the substrate W is measured, and the exposure light exposure amount of each illumination optical system is performed based on the measurement result so that each size reaches the target. In the second embodiment, in order to achieve a target size of the pattern formed on the substrate W, among the optical characteristics of the projection optical system 5, the focal positions of the projection optical systems 5a to 5g are changed.

Composition (J) or 61a). Furthermore, by moving the right angle 稜鏡 58 in the X direction by the 稜鏡 moving device 58a, the focal position of the projection optical system 5 is changed. By having both a right-angle 稜鏡 58 and a focus position adjusting device capable of making the right-angle 稜鏡 58 of the 稜鏡 moving device 58a, the focal point position of the projection optical system 5 is not consistent with the exposure processing surface of the substrate W The exposure light transmitted through the projection optical system 5 is brought into a defocused state on the exposure processing surface of the substrate W. Therefore, the line width of the pattern image formed on the substrate W becomes thicker. In addition, by performing the exposure processing in this defocused state, the pattern line width formed on the substrate W is made thicker than when the exposure processing is performed in a state where the focal position of the projection optical system 5 and the exposure processing surface of the substrate W coincide. Hereinafter, the operation of transferring the pattern image formed on the photomask to the substrate W by the exposure apparatus 1 having the above-mentioned configuration will be described. First, as in the first embodiment, before the exposure process is performed, the illuminance sensor 22 is used to set the illuminance of the exposure light in each projection area Pa to Pg to be uniform. Next, the mask M and the substrate W are placed on the mask stage 9b and the substrate stage 9a, respectively, and then the first exposure process is performed on the substrate. In a state where the illuminance of each projection area Pa to Pg is uniform, the development process is performed on the substrate W after the exposure processing. Next, the line width measuring machine 30 measures the pattern line width of each projection area Pa to Pg formed on the substrate W after the development process, and outputs the measured line width data to the control unit 7. The control unit 7 individually drives the moving units 58a (or 61a) of the projection optical systems 5a to 5g based on the measurement results of the line width measuring machine 30. Driven by the 稜鏡 moving device 58a (or 61a), the right-angle 稜鏡 58 (or 61) is moved in the X direction, respectively, and the focal positions of the projection optical systems 5a to 5g are individually changed. 22 This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) ------------------- IJ --------- (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) 473819 Printed by the Consumers ’Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 V.

Adjust 'to make the line width of the pattern image on the substrate W reach the target value. For example, if the pattern line width in a certain projection area is to be made thicker, the focal position of the exposure processing surface of the substrate W may be increased. Next, after the adjustment of the focal position of each of the projection optical systems 5a to 5§ is completed, the exposure process to the substrate W is performed again. In this way, the line width (size) of the pattern formed on the substrate w is measured, and the focal positions of the projection optical systems 5a to 5g are independently changed according to the measurement results, so that the line widths of the projection areas Pa to Pg are uniform. Therefore, The pattern line width of most of the projection areas Pa to Pg formed on the substrate W can be uniformly surely. At this time, for example, when the pattern line width on a substrate in one projection area measured by the line width measuring machine 30 is thinner than the pattern line width in another projection area, the projection optics corresponding to the projection area may be The focal position of the system 5 is shifted from the exposure processing surface of the substrate W, so that the line width of the pattern image on the appearance becomes thick, and thus the line width of the pattern formed on the substrate W becomes thick.

Description of the invention (〆) The structure, in the third embodiment, is located at a predetermined position on the light path of the illumination optical system 4a ~ 4g. The optical member of the variable opening through which the exposure light passes, adjusts the line width of the pattern image on the substrate by changing the size of the opening. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the illumination optical system 4a (4b ~ 4g) On the downstream side of the optical path of the fly-eye lens 15, a variable aperture (optical member) 70 ′ having a variable opening through which the exposure light can pass is set to be formed on the substrate W by adjusting the size of the opening The pattern line width. The variable light beam 70 is disposed on the pupil surface seen by the fly-eye lens 15. Secondly, the resolution of the optical system is changed by changing the size of the opening, and as the resolution changes, The pattern line width (size) formed on the substrate W is changed. That is, when the opening of the variable aperture 70 is changed The resolution is lowered, so that the width of the branch line of the pattern image on the substrate W becomes thicker. On the other hand, the resolution of the pattern image increases on the substrate W as the opening becomes larger. Therefore, the line width of the pattern image on the substrate W becomes narrower. When the exposure apparatus 1 configured as described above performs exposure processing, as in the first and second embodiments described above, first, before performing the exposure processing, the illuminance sensor 22 is used to set the exposure light intensity of each projection area Pa to Pg. The illuminance is uniform. Second, after the photomask M and the substrate W are placed on the photomask table 9b and the substrate table 9a, respectively, the first exposure processing for the substrate W is performed. Next, the substrate W is subjected to development processing. The line width measuring machine 30 measures the line width of the pattern formed in each projection area pa ~ Pg. The control section 7 individually changes and sets 25 paper sizes to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) based on the measurement results of the line width measuring machine 30.
