[0023] According to the exposure assembly 10 of the embodiment of the present invention, a beam splitter 200 is provided in the exposure assembly 10. The beam splitter 200 can reflect and decompose the passing light, so that the detection device 400 can detect the light reflected by the carrier 300, so as to monitor and feedback the use of the exposure assembly 10 in real time, and adjust the exposure performance of the exposure assembly 10 according to the current detection structure, so that the output performance of the exposure assembly 10 during use can meet the current demand, so as to improve the exposure effect and exposure efficiency.
[0024] In some embodiments, the beam splitter 200 includes: a lens 210, a first film layer 220, and a second film layer 230; the first film layer 220 is disposed on one side of the lens 210; and the second film layer 230 is disposed on the other side of the lens 210. It can be understood that the beam splitter 200 is suitable for including the lens 210, the first film layer 220, and the second film layer 230. The lens 210 is suitable for transmitting light, and the first film layer 220 and the second film layer 230 are disposed on both sides of the lens 210, so that the lenses 210 on both sides can have different properties, thereby realizing the transmission or reflection of light, so as to form light outputs with different properties of the beam splitter 200.
[0025] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the first film layer 220 is a transmission layer and / or at least a portion of the first film layer 220 is a reflection layer, and the second film layer 230 is an anti-reflection layer. It should be noted that the first film layer 220 is disposed on the side of the lens 210 facing the light source 100, so that the first film layer 220 is suitable for reflecting light, so that the light is reflected onto the carrier 300 for exposure processing, and the exposed light is suitable for transmission through the first film layer 220 to be transmitted to the detection device 400 for detection feedback. Therefore, the first film layer 220 is constructed as a film layer in which a transmission layer and a reflection layer are mixed, so that the first film layer 220 can have a combination of reflection and transmission properties. The second film layer 230 is constructed as an anti-reflection layer, so that the transmitted light is suitable for passing through the detection, and avoids being exposed again through the beam splitter 200, so that the exposure performance of the exposure assembly 10 is more reliable.
[0026] In some embodiments, the first film layer 220 and the second film layer 230 are coated on the lens 210 by a coating process. It is understood that the first film layer 220 and the second film layer 230 are arranged to be coated on the lens 210 by a coating process so that the first film layer 220 and the second film layer 230 can be used according to the designed settings, so that the light can be reflected and exposed and transmitted and detected according to the design, so that the beam splitter 200 has a higher performance to meet the use.
[0027] In some embodiments, the exposure assembly 10 further includes: an anti-reflection unit 500, which is disposed on the side of the beam splitter 200 away from the carrier 300, and the anti-reflection unit 500 is spaced apart from the detection device 400.

In order to avoid the effect of this part of the transmitted light on the performance of the exposure assembly 10, the anti-reflection unit 500 is suitable for being constructed so that the anti-reflection unit 500 can eliminate the above-mentioned transmitted light, so that the performance of the exposure assembly 10 is improved.
[0028] In some embodiments, the anti-reflection portion 500 is an anti-reflection film. It is understood that the anti-reflection portion 500 is constructed using the anti-reflection film so that the anti-reflection film can be arranged at a suitable position so that the light of the exposure assembly 10 can be eliminated as designed.
[0029] In some embodiments, a carrying portion is provided on the carrying member 300, and the carrying portion is used to carry the circuit board for exposure, and the carrying portion is arranged opposite to the beam splitter 200. That is, during the construction process of the carrying member 300, it is suitable to be configured with a carrying portion, and the carrying portion is suitable for carrying the circuit board or the mask plate for exposure, so that the exposure performance of the exposure assembly 10 can act on the circuit board or the mask plate according to the design for exposure processing.
[0030] In some embodiments, the detection device 400 is a detection camera.

[0033] The lithography device according to the embodiment of the present invention includes: the exposure assembly 10 as described above. That is, the 405nm laser beam is irradiated onto the beam splitter 200 through two lenses 210, and the reflected light R in a specific proportion enters the processing surface of the mask to perform normal mask exposure processing, and the remaining proportion of the transmitted light T will pass through the beam splitter 200 and be absorbed by the anti-reflection film to prevent light pollution. The light beam R incident on the mask will partially reflect the light into the loop due to the material properties, and the reflected light in the loop will be transmitted again through the beam splitter 200 in proportion and imaged on the CCD camera equipped with a polarizer 800, thereby realizing real-time monitoring of the processing status of the mask.
[0034] In this way, by providing the exposure assembly 10 as shown above in the lithography device, since the beam splitter 200 is provided in the exposure assembly 10, the beam splitter 200 can reflect and decompose the passing light, so that the detection device 400 can detect the light reflected by the carrier, so as to monitor and feedback the use of the exposure assembly 10 in real time, and adjust the exposure performance of the exposure assembly 10 according to the current detection structure, so that the output performance of the exposure assembly 10 during use can meet the current demand, so as to improve the exposure effect and exposure efficiency, so that the use performance of the lithography device is improved.
