EXPOSURE APPARATUS, EXPOSURE METHOD, AND METHOD OF MANUFACTRUING DEVICE
First Claim
1. An exposure apparatus comprising:
- a moving mechanism that moves a first substrate that has photosensitivity in a first heading along a first direction and that moves a second substrate that has photosensitivity in a second heading that is opposite to the first heading along the first direction;
a stage mechanism that holds a mask that has a pattern, and moves in a third heading along a second direction in synchronization with the movement in the first direction of the first substrate and the second substrate; and
a projection optical system that receives light via the pattern, forms a first projection image of the pattern on the first substrate so that the third heading on the mask and the first heading on the first substrate optically correspond, and forms a second projection image of the pattern on the second substrate so that the third heading on the mask and the second heading on the second substrate optically correspond.

Abstract
An exposure apparatus of one aspect of the present invention is provided with a moving mechanism that moves a first portion of a belt-shaped substrate that has photosensitivity in a first heading along a first direction and moves a second portion of the substrate in a second heading along the first direction, a stage mechanism that holds a mask and moves it in a third heading along a second direction in synchronization with the movement of the substrate, and a projection optical system. The projection optical system forms a first projection image of the pattern on the first portion so that the third heading on the mask and the first heading on the first portion optically correspond, and forms a second projection image of the pattern on the second portion so that the third heading on the mask and the second heading on the second portion optically correspond.

23. An exposure method comprising:
-
moving a first substrate that has photosensitivity in a first heading along a first direction and moving a second substrate that has photosensitivity in a second heading that is opposite to the first heading along the first direction; moving a mask that has a pattern in a third heading along a second direction in synchronization with the movement in the first direction of the first substrate and the second substrate; and receiving light from the pattern, forming a first projection image of the pattern on the first substrate so that the third heading on the mask and the first heading on the first substrate optically correspond, and forming a second projection image of the pattern on the second substrate so that the third heading on the mask and the second heading on the second substrate optically correspond. - View Dependent Claims (28)
