Illumination system for a lithographic projection exposure step-and-scan apparatus comprising a light source, a pupil shaping unit, a field defining unit, a first lens array, a first slit array, a second lens array, a third lens array, a second slit array, a fourth lens array, a condenser lens, and a scanning drive unit sequentially arranged along the light beam propagation direction. The illumination system reduces requirements on lens processing, slit scanning speed, and slit scanning precision, therefore may be implemented more easily.

Illumination system for lithographic projection exposure step-and-scan apparatus

A lithography illumination system, along the transmission direction of the laser light, successively having a laser light source, a collimating and expanding unit, a pupil shaping unit, a first micro-lens array, a micro-integrator rod array, a micro-scanning slit array, a second micro-lens array, a condenser lens group, a mask, and and a motion control unit for controlling the motion of the micro scanning slit array.
