Description

The two sides projection aligner of banded workpiece
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of exposure device that is exposed in the two sides of banded workpiece, particularly a kind of comprehensively absorption keeps banded workpiece, also can prevent because of the thermal expansion in the exposure causes bending, and the exposure device that is exposed in banded workpiece two sides simultaneously.
Background technology
Sometimes make the circuit figures on the two sides of workpiece such as printed base plate, be used for the exposure device of this technology, known have a double-side exposal device.
For example, in patent documentation 1, put down in writing close formula double-side exposal device (Fig. 1 in this communique).What put down in writing in the document is, to the substrate (workpiece W) that will expose, according to move on the transfer station → on the 1st positioning table B, position → carry out face exposure → reverse → position → carry out back-exposure →, handle at the 1st exposure desk C from taking out of the order that platform G takes out of at the 2nd exposure desk F at the 2nd positioning table E at counter-rotating platform D.
In addition, in patent documentation 2, also put down in writing close formula double-side exposal device.Record is in this patent documentation 2, and two work stage (workpiece maintenance base plate) that keep workpiece (being exposed plate) that face exposure is used and back-exposure is used are set, and carries out face exposure and back-exposure in position separately.
In addition, the figure that is formed on the workpiece two sides has the preposition relation, for example, if circuitous pattern, then is electrically connected both with through hole etc.
Record is about make the close exposure device of circuit figures on workpiece such as printed base plate in above-mentioned patent documentation 1 and the patent documentation 2, but because close exposure or contact exposure all are that workpiece is placed on the work stage, by make mask near or mask is close to expose after the workpiece, so, have the problem of adhering to dust etc. on workpiece or the mask.
In addition, for banded continuous long dimension workpiece (banded workpiece) such as TAB (Tape Automated Bonding) or FPC (flexible printing substrate), need form figure on its two sides equally and make product.
Fig. 8 is illustrated in the structure example that the two sides forms the FPC (flexible printing substrate) 100 of figure.This figure is the sectional view of width of the workpiece direction, for ease of understanding, has amplified vertically.
On resin films 101 such as the polyimide of wide 100~250mm, thick 20~50 μ m or polyester,, attach Copper Foil 102 electric conductors such as grade about thick 10~20 μ m by applying heat or pressure.
Attach dry film photoresist layer 103 (DFR: the thickness of commercially available mainstream product is approximately 7 μ m) in the above, and attach PET (polyethylene terephthalate: the thickness of commercially available mainstream product is approximately 21 μ m) film 104.The gross thickness of FPC100 reaches about 110~180 μ m.
Being used in the exposure that forms figure on the DFR103 is to have installed under the situation of PET film 104 directly to carry out, and develops after peeling off PET film 104.
In addition, PET film 104 is diaphragms, as long as attach this film, even roll extrusion exposure region for example also can prevent to cause damage.
As the exposure device that on above-mentioned banded workpiece, the circuit figures is exposed, for example, the known exposure device that patent documentation 3 records are arranged.
The exposure device of above-mentioned patent documentation 3 records makes the light of emitting from light source portion shine on the banded workpiece by mask and projecting lens, and on the banded workpiece that utilizes connecting gear to transmit mask graph is exposed.
If above-mentioned such projection aligner, then can avoid as above-mentioned near the problem of on workpiece, adhering to dust etc. exposure or the contact exposure.
When the exposure device that adopts above-mentioned banded workpiece, on the two sides of banded workpiece, during exposure figure, carry out by the following method.
On above-mentioned exposure device, place banded workpiece, adopt the face exposure mask, the 1st (surface) integral body of banded workpiece is exposed.Then,, adopt back side mask, the 2nd (back side) of banded workpiece is exposed the placement that turns over of banded workpiece.
Also can expose to above-mentioned the 1st, the 2nd face, the 1st (surface) exposure also can be set with exposure device and the 2nd (back side) exposure exposure device respectively, the 1st, the 2nd face are exposed with 1 exposure device.
When exposed in the two sides of banded workpiece, there is following problem in exposure device adopting above-mentioned patent documentation 3 records.
Owing to be after carrying out the 1st exposure, carry out the 2nd exposure, as carrying out the exposure on two sides, then need the DT Doubling Time of single face exposure.In addition, dress change of lap tube also needs staff, spended time.
In addition, owing to be after having carried out the 1st exposure, carry out the 2nd exposure, delicate difference appears in the environmental baseline when exposing sometimes (temperature or humidity).When FPC was exposed, as mentioned above, substrate was polyester or polyimide resin film, and because of the difference of above-mentioned environmental baseline, difference appears in the stroke of film.
In addition, be formed on the figure and the figure that is formed on the back side of surface of the work, interrelated as mentioned above, must have designed preposition relation.But when face exposure and during back-exposure, if the stroke difference of film, mistake appears in the relative position relation that is formed on the figure on two sides, becomes sometimes to cause underproof reason.
Owing to utilize the exposure device of banded workpiece in the past, the face that pursue exposes, and has the problems referred to above, so, can expose the simultaneously banded workpiece exposure device on two sides of active demand.
Patent documentation 1: No. 2832673 communique of Japan's special permission; Patent documentation 2: TOHKEMY 2000-171980 communique; Patent documentation 3: Japanese kokai publication hei 3-242651 communique.
As exposing simultaneously, can not utilize opaque work stage to adsorb the rear side that keeps carrying out the exposure area to the two sides of banded workpiece comprehensively.Thus, following problem appears.
When exposure, banded workpiece absorbs exposure light and the temperature rising.In the past, because the rear side absorption of exposure area is remained on the work stage, the heat that workpiece produces passed to work stage, thereby dispelled the heat, and can prevent that workpiece temperature from rising.
But, as mentioned above, owing to can not utilize objective table absorption to keep exposure region, so, can not distribute the heat of absorption.Particularly,, do not readily conduct heat because FPC is a resin molding, so, have only the temperature of the part (exposure area: about 100mm * 100mm) of irradiates light to raise.If (use ultra violet radiation illumination 100mW/cm by general conditions of exposure 2, shine several seconds) expose, then the temperature of workpiece exposure region raises about 10 ℃.
Thus, only about exposure area thermal expansion 10 μ m~20 μ m, banded workpiece W as shown in Figure 9, for relaxing this thermal expansion, heaves or crooked (moving) to optical axis (up and down) direction.Because of this heaves the mobile hundreds of μ m that reaches of the optical axis direction of (or crooked).
Scioptics with mask graph on workpiece projection and the exposure the projection exposure mode in, even the depth of focus of projecting lens greatly also have only ± 50 μ m about.So if workpiece moves more than the hundreds of μ m to optical axis direction, the mask images that is projected on the workpiece fogs, and can not carry out high-precision exposure (duplicating of mask graph).
Above-mentioned the heaving of taking place for preventing (or crooked) considered on the direction of transfer of banded workpiece and the direction vertical with direction of transfer (width of the workpiece direction) method that (when not stretching agley) exposes when applying tension force.
But, if when applying tension force, expose,, also be stretched, so workpiece extends fast because of thermal expansion in the exposure and is not less than 10 μ m~20 μ m because workpiece is when being extended by thermal expansion.Because workpiece extends in exposure, workpiece relatively moves with respect to the mask images in the exposure, and skew appears in the figure that is formed on the workpiece, can not carry out high-precision exposure (duplicating of mask graph).
Also consider to make work stage, still, keep the work stage of workpiece, processing to see through the difficulty of the glass as quartz that exposure light is a ultraviolet light as absorption with clear glass, because it is cost is also very high, therefore unrealistic.
In addition, to be called " bluring " because of the unsharp phenomenon of image outline of the image on the workpiece not being carried out joule is caused, though will focus here, to image, but because of workpiece in the exposure moves, and the result can only form the phenomenon of fuzzy figure and is called " irregular ".
Summary of the invention
The present invention proposes for the problem that solves in the above-mentioned conventional art, the objective of the invention is, can be by the two sides while exposure figure of projection exposure to banded workpiece, in graph exposure, even workpiece thermal expansion, can prevent that also workpiece from moving up and down cause image blurring, and the extension of the workpiece in preventing to expose cause irregular.
For addressing the above problem, in the banded workpiece two sides projection aligner to the two sides exposure mask pattern of banded workpiece, be provided with: the 1st mechanism applies tension force to banded workpiece on direction of transfer; The 2nd mechanism applies tension force to banded workpiece on the direction vertical with direction of transfer; And maintaining body, the banded workpiece that has been applied in tension force on above-mentioned direction of transfer and the direction vertical with above-mentioned direction of transfer is kept, before beginning exposure, banded workpiece is applied tension force, extend the amount of the elongation that the workpiece thermal expansion of hypothesis forms in being equivalent to expose, by this elongation fixing after, expose.
Above-mentioned the 1st mechanism, the 2nd mechanism and maintaining body are configured in the exposure region outside, apply tension force with the 1st, the 2nd mechanism, with the fixing banded workpiece of above-mentioned maintaining body, two sides from banded workpiece, mask between the centre, is shone exposure light simultaneously, carry out the two sides exposure.In addition, above-mentioned the 1st mechanism and the 2nd mechanism also can the double as maintaining bodies.
Apply the direction of tension force (stretching), it is the direction of transfer of workpiece and the direction of vertical (width of the workpiece) with it, apply tension force simultaneously, the elongation of the unit length of the elongation of unit length of banded workpiece of direction of transfer and the direction vertical with direction of transfer is equated, and under this state, carry out structure and fix with the maintenance machine.
If only stretch a direction, because the contraction of perpendicular direction, so, tension force on two directions, all applied.
In the exposure, applying under the state of mentioned strain,, the tension force (stress) that is applied to workpiece is being relaxed,, do not producing above-mentioned shown in Figure 9 heaving (or crooked) by only relaxing stress if workpiece produces thermal expansion.In addition, owing to workpiece is extended in advance, so do not produce the extension that thermal expansion causes.
In addition, as mentioned above, if directly exposure under the state that workpiece is applied tensile force, workpiece extends in exposure fast, and it is irregular that image becomes.
To this, in the present invention, in exposure, no longer apply the power that workpiece is further stretched.That is, to keep the mode fixation workpiece of the tension force of being executed in advance.Therefore, when workpiece extended because of thermal expansion, no longer effect made its power of further extending, the extension of workpiece in the exposure, and promptly workpiece does not produce relatively moving with respect to mask images.
Therefore, what the workpiece bending caused in can preventing to expose is fuzzy, and it is irregular to prevent that workpiece from stretching and causing simultaneously.
The elongation that the thermal expansion of supposing in the exposure forms, as mentioned above, for example at 10 μ m~20 μ m, by apply tension force before exposure, workpiece can extend 10 μ m~20 μ m.But, even workpiece so extends,, after exposure, do not produce special problem based on following reason yet.
When forming figure on the two sides of workpiece, the institute position that requires of the relative position off-design of the most debatable figure that is formed in the surface and the back side concerns.In the past, owing to be single face exposure, if the elongation difference of workpiece when exposing separately is offset both relative position.But, under situation of the present invention, even workpiece extends because of being applied in tension force, owing to exposing simultaneously on the two sides, so the relative position that is formed on the figure at the surface and the back side can not depart from.
In addition, by extending workpiece, for example 2 the specifically labelled intervals that are formed on the workpiece are extended (prolongation), but be to the situation of mask graph with the projection aligner of lens projections under, if be arranged on the mechanism of mobile projector lens on the optical axis direction, or zoom mechanism is set on lens, and then can adjust the multiplying power that is projected in the image on the workpiece, can no problem ground carry out the location of mask and workpiece.
In addition, under the big a little state of multiplying power, even form the figure of exposure, when the temperature in end exposure post-exposure zone descends and workpiece when shrinking, formed figure also shrinks thereupon, so, can form the figure of designed size.

When banded workpiece W was controlled in clamping section 22, the transmission motor 23a that clamps drive division 23 drove, and ball bolt 23b rotates, and clamping section 22 is side shifting outside width of the workpiece direction.Thus, on Width, banded workpiece W is applied tension force, make its extension.Utilize clamping drive division 23 that clamping section 22 is moved, banded workpiece W is applied tension force, consistent up to this elongation with the elongation that thermal expansion forms.
In addition, utilize the 1st tension force imparting mechanism 11 to the stretching of direction of transfer with utilize of the stretching of the 2nd tension force imparting mechanism 21, also can carry out simultaneously to width of the workpiece direction.
When the elongation of two directions of banded workpiece W reaches the elongation that thermal expansion forms, supply with vacuum to the vacuum suction hole of workpiece maintaining body 6 6b, banded workpiece W absorption is remained in the workpiece maintaining body 6.The cylinder 22a of the clamping section 12 of the 1st tension force imparting mechanism 11 raises pressing plate 12a, removes the tension force that applies on the direction of transfer of banded workpiece W.In addition, the cylinder 22g of the clamping section 22 of the 2nd tension force imparting mechanism 21 also descends, and the clamping section Gr1 of rising upper-part 22a, removes the tension force that is applied on the width of the workpiece direction.Drive the transmission motor 23a that clamps drive division 23, rotation ball screw rod 23b, clamping section 22 is to width of the workpiece direction medial movement.
In addition, as mentioned above, when the elongation of two directions of banded workpiece W reaches the elongation that thermal expansion forms, can banded workpiece W absorption not remained on workpiece maintaining body 6 yet, directly keep by the 1st tension force imparting mechanism 11 and the 2nd tension force imparting mechanism 21.
At this moment, with the 1st tension force imparting mechanism 11 and 21 whiles of the 2nd tension force imparting mechanism, keeping under the state of banded workpiece W by clamping section 12,22, if stop to clamp transmission motor 13a, the 23a of drive division 13,23, then the rotation of ball screw 13b, 23b also stops, and banded workpiece W is held under the state of keeping the tension force that is applied on the direction of transfer.
In addition, as mentioned above, adopting transmission to roll R3 as the 1st tension force imparting mechanism rolls under the situation of R2 with braking, rolling R3 with transmission and rolling under R2 and the state by the banded workpiece W of nip drum R2 ' clamping by nip drum R3 ' and braking, if stop to transmit the rotation of rolling R3, then banded workpiece W knapsack under the state of keeping the tension force that is applied on the direction of transfer keeps.
Below, the location and the exposing operation of double-side exposal device of the banded workpiece of present embodiment is described.
As mentioned above, banded workpiece W is being applied tension force, with workpiece maintaining body 6 fixing after, detect the telltale mark on the surface of mask M1 and banded workpiece W with not shown detent mechanism, reach, the telltale mark at the back side of M2 and banded workpiece W positions.After finish the location, from illumination part 41,42 irradiation exposure lights, the surface and the back side of the banded workpiece W that exposes simultaneously.
One finishes exposure, just stops to remove the maintenance of banded workpiece W to workpiece maintaining body 6 supply vacuum.Rotate to transmit and roll R3, send into next exposure area to exposure portion 5.
When above-mentioned location, as mentioned above, move at optical axis direction by making projecting lens 31,32, or on lens, zoom mechanism is set, can adjust the multiplying power that is projected in the image on the banded workpiece W.The location of thus, can no problem ground carrying out mask M1, M2 and banded workpiece W.
The banded workpiece W that extends is positioned or exposes is following carrying out.
Utilization is extended banded workpiece W by the tension force that the 1st tension force imparting mechanism 11 and the 2nd tension force imparting mechanism 21 apply.Thereupon, for example, on the banded workpiece W, 2 specifically labelled intervals of workpiece also extend (elongated).
On mask M1, M2, by forming the mask alignment mark, move by the position that makes mask M1, M2 and banded workpiece W with workpiece telltale mark identical distance, so that both are positioned at same position, carry out the location of mask M1, M2 and banded workpiece W.Yet,, be difficult to high precision and carry out above-mentioned location if extend the specifically labelled interval of workpiece.
Therefore, as mentioned above, be arranged on the mechanism of optical axis direction mobile projector lens 31,32, or on projecting lens 31,32, zoom mechanism be set, adjust the multiplying power that is projected in the mask images on the banded workpiece W.
The multiplying power of mask graph is strengthened the size (as mentioned above, 10 μ m~20 μ m) of extending the specifically labelled interval of workpiece, and carry out projection.By enlargement ratio, owing to also prolong the interval that is projected in the mask alignment mark on the workpiece, can make it consistent with the workpiece telltale mark, can carry out the location of aforementioned mask and workpiece.Because enlargement ratio and projecting figure, therefore the figure of exposure becomes the figure bigger slightly than design load.But behind end exposure, if remove tension force, because workpiece returns to original size, the size of figure is also dwindled thereupon, does not have problems.
In addition, owing to expose simultaneously in the two sides, the two sides all with identical multiplying power projected image, is dwindled when dwindling too, so both relative position relations can not depart from.
Fig. 7 represents above-mentioned banded workpiece shown in Figure 8, adopts said apparatus to apply tension force and the result when exposing.
The transverse axis of Fig. 7 (a) is the size that imposes on banded workpiece W tension force, for example, if 3000g (3kg), the tension force that expression also applies 3kg to the direction of transfer and the Width of workpiece respectively.
The longitudinal axis is the deviation at the interval (live width) of the figure that forms of exposure.Specifically be, shown in Fig. 7 (b), (c), 25 places in the exposure region of about 100mm * 100mm, it is the figure of 15 μ m that exposure forms the interval design load, after the development, at above-mentioned 25 places, measure the interval of above-mentioned figure, expression deducts the value of the narrowest pattern spacing from the wideest pattern spacing.
As mentioned above, banded workpiece W produces fuzzy or deflection in exposure.If the spacing bias of figure is big, then fuzzy or deflection is also big, that is, when exposure, can produce big crooked or extend to banded workpiece.
Found out that by Fig. 7 the tension force that imposes on banded workpiece W is big more, the deviation of pattern spacing is more little, that is, the crooked or extension of the workpiece in reducing to expose can the high precision exposure.
The invention effect
As previously discussed, in the present invention, can access following effect.
(1) in the exposure, banded workpiece absorbs exposure light, and the temperature of exposure region is raise, and produces Give birth to thermal expansion, still, owing to extend workpiece by this elongation in advance, only by relaxing stress, just Do not produce heaving or bending of workpiece. Therefore, banded workpiece does not move to optical axis direction, can not produce Living image blurring, can carry out high-precision exposure (copying of mask graph).
(2) in addition, owing to keep the periphery of the exposure region of banded workpiece to be held, in exposure In, no longer extend workpiece, can prevent irregular generation. So, can carry out high-precision exposing to the sun Light.
(3) owing to carry out projection exposure, so, can adjust the multiplying power of the mask images of projection, Can according to the extension situation projection print plate figure of workpiece, can carry out high-precision exposure.
