Title:
PHOTO-ALIGNMENT EXPOSURE DEVICE AND PHOTO-ALIGNMENT EXPOSURE METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/162026
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention addresses the problem of enabling a photo-alignment exposure device, for implementing an oblique exposure method capable of causing a pre-tilt angle to stably appear, to use an inexpensive scattering light source (volume light source) and to realize uniform light irradiation even with a compact configuration. A photo-alignment exposure device (1) according to the present invention is for performing polarized scan exposure on a to-be-irradiated surface which becomes a photo-alignment film, and is provided with: a light source (2) for emitting scattering light toward the to-be-irradiated surface; an optical filter (3) through which the photosensitive wavelength of the photo-alignment film in the light emitted from the light source (2) is selectively emitted; and a light limitation member (4) that asymmetrically limits the light having passed through the optical filter (3) in the back-and-forth direction of a scanning direction (X), wherein the optical filter (3) has wavelength transmission characteristics where the transmittance of light having the photosensitive wavelength reaches a peak through oblique exposure where an irradiation angle in the scanning direction (X) is equal to or more than a set angle (θs) with respect to the normal direction of the surface being irradiated.
