Patent number: 10942456Abstract: An ultraviolet (UV) light source is provided. The device uses a high-uniformity diode array. A lens unit of collimated illumination lenses is used. A light source of UV light-emitting diode (UVLED) array is formed and passes through the lens unit to uniformly distribute the light source and obtain a collimated light. The present invention comprises a light source of UVLED array; a collimated illumination lens unit; and a substrate. The construction is simple. The present invention can be applied in the lithography of a semiconductor. The lithography forms contact lines of widths not greater than 3 microns (?m); soft-contact lines of widths of 3˜30 ?m; and short-spaced lines of widths of 30˜200 ?m. The present invention avoids the mask from contact wear-out for multiple uses, and further reduces the replacement rate.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2020Date of Patent: March 9, 2021Assignee: National Applied Research LaboratoriesInventors: Jiun-Woei Huang, Min-Wei Hung, Kuo-Cheng Huang
