ABSTRACT:
An exposure system includes: an illumination optical system defining, in an effective illumination source plane, a center region forming a perpendicularly incident light and first and second eccentric regions forming obliquely incident lights having a perpendicular electric vector component perpendicular to a straight line connecting the first and second eccentric regions, the electric vector component being larger than a parallel electric vector component parallel to the straight line, and illuminating the mask pattern with the perpendicularly incident light and the obliquely incident lights; and a projection optical system projecting an image of the mask pattern to a processing object.
