  • Patent number: 10788716
    Abstract: A photo-alignment control method and a photo-alignment apparatus are disclosed. In the photo-alignment control method, a yaw angle of a motion stage (130) relative to a polarizing illumination device (110) is detected to derive a weighted dynamic polarization angle deviation of a substrate (200), so that a rotational angle of a rotary table (120) for rotating a substrate (200) is controlled, thereby effectively improving a control accuracy of a polarization angle in the photo-alignment process and further to ensure an accuracy of an alignment angle formed in an alignment film.

  • Patent number: 10578986
    Abstract: A dual-layer alignment apparatus is disclosed which includes: a fixed frame (40) and, disposed thereon, a first measuring device (50) and a mark plate (41), the mark plate (41) having a fixed-frame mark (20); and a motion stage (60) and, disposed thereon, a reference mark (30), a motion-stage mark (70) and a second measuring device (10). The first measuring device (50) is configured to measure a relative positional relationship between the reference mark (30) and the motion-stage mark (70), the second measuring device (10) is configured to measure a relative positional relationship between the reference mark (30) and the fixed-frame mark (20), from which a final relative positional relationship between the motion-stage mark (70) and the fixed-frame mark (20) is derived, based on which the motion stage (60) is displaced to a target location. A corresponding dual-layer alignment method is also disclosed. In the apparatus, the motion stage (60) is the only movable component.
