Patent ID: 7292308

Claim:
A system, comprising: a radiation system that generates a beam of radiation; a pattern generator that patterns the beam; a projection system that projects the patterned beam onto target portions of a flexible substrate to pattern the flexible substrate; a chuck including first and second sides, the second side supporting the flexible substrate as the flexible substrate receives the patterned beam; a moving device including a feed roller and a take-up roller, the moving device moving the flexible substrate along a path through coupling the flexible substrate at a first end to the feed roller and at a second end to the take-up roller; and a bend roller that supports the flexible substrate at a bending point along the path, wherein the flexible substrate travels from the feed roller to the bend roller in a first direction adjacent the first side of the chuck and the flexible substrate travels from the bend roller to the take-up roller in a second direction, which is opposite of the first direction, against the second side of the chuck.
