ABSTRACT:
Through a pattern mask, small sections of a semiconductor wafer are exposed successively to light radiated from a mercury-vapor lamp in high-level steps, during each of which the power consumption of the mercury-vapor lamp is at a high level, by continuously lighting the mercury-vapor lamp and repeatedly alternating each of the high-level steps and a low-level step during which the power consumption of the mercury-vapor lamp is at a low level. As the mercury-vapor lamp, there is used a mercury-vapor lamp in which mercury is filled in such a large amount that when lit in the low-level step, the mercury vapor pressure in its envelope is below 96% of the saturated mercury vapor pressure at that time. Use of such a mercury-vapor lamp is effective in avoiding the occurrence of incomplete lighting state when its power consumption is changed from the low-level step to the high-level step.
