Specifically, as shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of a lithography system for super surface processing provided by the embodiments of the present application is as follows:

Wherein the worktable 33 is used for realizing the movement and/or rotation of the lithography object 4, and the precision of the worktable 33 is hundreds of nanometers to micron-scale precision.
The light source 1 and the exposure projection system 2 are configured to: in the case of aligning the lithography object 4 by means of a double-sided mark alignment system, the lithography object 4 is subjected to first-side and second-side exposures, respectively.
The movement patterns of the light source 1 and the exposure projection system 2 illustratively include a step-by-step type, a scanning type, or a combination of the step-by-step type and the scanning type.
Illustratively, the light source 1 is disposed above the exposure projection system 2, and the double-sided mark alignment system is disposed below the exposure projection system 2. The lithographic object 4 is set on a stage 33 of a double-sided mark alignment system. The optical axes of the collimating light source 31 and the microscope objective of the microscope system 32 are arranged in a coincident and opposite manner. The microscope system 32 and the stage 33 are each connected to a control system 34.
In the exemplary embodiment of the present application, the relative positions of the light source 1, the exposure projection system 2, the collimated light source 31, and the microscope system 32 are fixed. The object 4 is set on the stage 33, and the marking unit 5 is set at an edge position of the object 4. The stage 33 is controlled to move the lithographic object 4 between the microscope system 32 and the collimated light source 31 so that the marking unit 5 is located in the field of view of the microscope objective of the microscope system 32. The lithographic object 4 is moved and/or rotated by the stage 33 such that the marking unit 5 is located in the center of the field of view of the microscope objective of the microscope system 32 and the marking unit 5 is perpendicular to the optical axis of the collimated light source 31. At this time, the marking unit 5 is photographed by the microscope system 32 and recorded as an initial picture, and the central point of the initial picture is recorded as the origin of coordinates (0, 0, 0). The first surface exposure is performed by moving the lithography object 4 below the exposure projection system 2.
Exemplarily, the focus position of the exposure projection apparatus 2 is determined as a first coordinate and the center point of the area to be exposed of the lithographic object 4 is determined as a second coordinate. And calculating a vector which is required to move the center point of the area to be exposed to the first coordinate for photoetching to be a first vector according to the first coordinate and the second coordinate.
After the first side of the object 4 is exposed, the second side of the object 4 is set on the stage 33. The lithographic object 4 is moved such that the marking unit 5 is located in the field of view of the microscope objective of the microscope system 32. The alignment is ended when the imaging of the marking unit 5 in the microscope system 32 coincides with the marking unit 5 in the initial picture by moving or rotating the lithography object 4 by the stage 33. The height of the object 4 is lowered by the stage 33, the moving distance is the thickness of the object 4, and the center of the second surface marking unit 5 is recorded as the origin of coordinates (0, 0, 0).
Illustratively, the lithographic object 4 is first moved down by the thickness of the lithographic object 4. And then the photoetching object 4 is moved to the position corresponding to the first surface structure below the exposure projection system 2, namely the position of the first coordinate for carrying out second surface exposure. At this time, the motion vector is equal to the first vector.
Exemplarily, when the lithography object 4 is a non-planar surface, the second coordinate is a coordinate of a center of an equivalent plane of the area to be exposed, and the first vector further includes a rotation vector. The lithography object 4 is rotated according to the rotation vector such that the normal of the equivalent plane of the area to be exposed coincides with the optical axis of the exposure projection system 2. Since the write field of the exposure projection means 2 is only a few micrometers, the non-planar curvature variation over the write field is negligible and can be equated to a planar surface. The equivalent method is as follows:
determining the center point (x) of the area to be exposed1,y1,z1) The normal vector of the center point is (k)x,ky,kz) Then the equation of the equivalent plane is kx(x-x1)+ky(y-y1)+kz(z-z1)=0。
It should be understood that in the present embodiment, the positions of the light source 1, the exposure projection system 2, and the double-sided mark alignment system are not limited to being placed one above the other. As long as the light source 1 is capable of projecting an image or structure onto the lithographic object 4 by means of the exposure projection system 2.
