Problems solved by technology

These exposure equipment, processing equipment, and transport equipment are extremely large and expensive, and it is difficult to suppress the total cost related to the production of the display panel (various operating expenses accompanying the operation of the equipment, maintenance of a large-scale clean room, etc.) costs, waste due to material disposal processes such as etching, etc.)

no. 1 Embodiment approach

[0063] figure 1 It is a figure which shows the structure of an example of the device manufacturing system SYS (flexible display manufacturing line) of this embodiment. Here it is shown that the flexible substrate P (sheet, film, etc.) pulled out from the supply reel FR1 passes through n processing devices U1, U2, U3, U4, U5, ... Un in sequence until it is wound up in the recovery process. Example on reel FR2.

[0064] In the following description, regarding the XYZ rectangular coordinate system, the front surface (or back surface) of the substrate P is set to be perpendicular to the XZ plane and the width direction perpendicular to the conveyance direction (longitudinal direction) of the substrate P is set to be is the direction of the Y axis. In the following description, the rotation direction around the X-axis direction is referred to as the θX-axis direction, and similarly, the rotation directions around the Y-axis direction and the Z-axis direction are respectively refe...

Abstract

This substrate treatment device (EX) is equipped with: a projection light system (PL) that forms an image of a mask pattern on a substrate by projecting a reflected light beam (L2), which is generated from an illumination region (IR), toward the substrate; a light separation section (10) that allows either illumination light emitted toward the illumination region or an imaging light beam generated from the illumination region to pass and reflects the other; and an illumination light system (IL) that forms a primary light source image, emits illumination light from the primary light source image to the illumination region, and forms a first conjugate plane, which is optically conjugate to the illumination region, between a central line and a cylindrical surface.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a substrate processing device and a device manufacturing method. [0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2012-157810 filed on July 13, 2012 and Japanese Patent Application No. 2012-157811 filed on July 13, 2012, and the contents thereof are incorporated herein. Background technique [0003] As a substrate processing apparatus for patterning electronic circuits such as semiconductor integrated devices and display panels, precise exposure apparatuses are widely used. This exposure device is generally a device that optically transfers a pattern of an electronic circuit formed on a mask (mask) onto a photosensitive substrate such as a semiconductor wafer or a glass substrate via a projection optical system. The photomask used therein is usually formed by forming a circuit pattern on a flat quartz plate through a light-shielding material such as chromium. The bottom moves in a step-and-sc...
