DMD has the advantages of short response time, high resolution and high optical efficiency. Laser direct writing lithography technology reduces the difficulty and cost of traditional lithography technology in making and processing masks, simplifies the cumbersome process flow of lithography technology, and improves the working efficiency of lithography machines. On the one hand, it is necessary to improve its compatibility with PCB ink models, which depends on the spectral range that the lithography objective lens can be compatible with.
