ABSTRACT:
The exposure apparatus includes: a light source which emits parallel light having a wavelength used for exposure; a photomask which includes a substrate, an optical shielding layer and an optical selective layer, the substrate being capable of transmitting the light of the wavelength, the optical shielding layer being made of a material not transmitting the light of the wavelength, the optical selective layer selectively transmitting light in accordance with a shape to be formed by the exposure, the optical shielding layer and the optical selective layer being arranged on a first side of the substrate; a photomask stage which holds the photomask of which the first side has been coated with photosensitive material, in such a manner that the light emitted from the light source falls on a second side of the photomask reverse to the first side and is projected to the photosensitive material on the first side; a photomask rotation device which rotates the photomask stage on an axis perpendicular to the second side of the photomask; and a photomask tilt device which is capable of tilting the photomask held on the photomask stage in such a manner that the light emitted from the light source falls perpendicularly and obliquely on the second side of the photomask.
