A microlens array (MLA) was developed based on the wet-etched quartz substrate and coating of UV adhesive on the substrate for maskless lithography application. The developed MLA has the focal length of ${\sim}45\;{\mu}m$ and the spot size of ${\sim}1\;{\mu}m$. The spot size of the focused beam passing through the MLA was detected by CCD camera, and its intensity was monitored by beam profiler. Uniform spots with nearly identical intensities were observed on the focal plane when a beam passes through the fabricated MLA. The focal length was varied depending on thickness of the coated UV adhesive. The thicker the thickness of the UV adhesive was, the shorter the focal length of the MLA was. With a general mask aligner, UV beam focusing was tested onto photoresist (PR). The beams were well focused onto PR when UV passes through the MLA. Depending on the variable distances from the MLA, beam sizes onto PR were controlled. Even at high temperature for a long time, the performances of the MLA were not changed.

Exposure process is the most important technology to fabricate highly integrated circuit. Up to now, mask type lithography process has been generally used. However, it is not efficient for small quantity and/or frequently changing products. Therefore, maskless lithography technology is raised in exposure process. In this study, relations between multi-beam energy and overlay were analyzed. Exposure experiment of generating pattern was performed. It was from presented scan line by multi- beam simulation. As a result, optimal scan line distance was proposed by simulation, and micro pattern accuracy could be improved by exposure experiment using laser direct imaging system.

Since a pattern defects "repair" system using a diode pumped solid state laser for Flat Panel Display (FPD) was suggested, a lot of laser systems have been explored and developed for mass-production microfabrication process. A maskless lithography system using 405 nm violet laser and Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) has been developed for PDP and Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Thin Film Transistor (TFT) photolithography process. In addition, a "Laser Direct Patterning" system for Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) for Plasma Display Panel(PDP) has been evaluated one of the best successful examples for laser application system which is applied for mass-production lines. The "heat" and "solvent" free laser microfabrications process will be widely used because the next-generation flat panel displays, Flexible Display and Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) should use plastic substrates and organic materials which are very difficult to process using traditional fabrication methods.

In the maskless photolithography based on the Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) by Texas Instruments Inc. (TI), the micromirror array works as a virtual photomask to write patterns directly onto Flat Panel Display (FPD) at high speed with low cost. However, it is neither simple to generate region-based patterns for the micromirror array nor easy to deliver sequences of patterns for the micromirror controller. Moreover, the quality of lithography yields the precise synchronization between generating sequence of patterns and irradiation rate off micromirrors. In this study, the region-based pattern generating system for maskless photolithography is devised. To verify salient features of devised functionalities, the prototype system is implemented and the system is evaluated with actual DMD based photolithography. The results show that proposed pattern generating method is proper and reliable. Moreover, the devised region-based pattern generating system is robust and precise enough to handle any possible user specified mandate and to achieve the quality of photolithography required by FPD manufacturer.
