Simulation of the effect of incline incident angle in DMD Maskless Lithography
Abstract
The aim of this study is to provide a simulation method for investigation of the intensity fluctuation caused by the inclined incident angle in DMD (digital micromirror device) maskless lithography. The simulation consists of eight main processes involving the simplification of the DMD aperture function and light propagation utilizing the non-parallel angular spectrum method. These processes provide a possibility of co-simulation in the spatial frequency domain, which combines the microlens array and DMD in the maskless lithography system. The simulation provided the spot shape and illumination distribution. These two parameters are crucial in determining the exposure dose in the existing maskless lithography system.
