Patent ID: 8212989

Claim:
Device for transferring the shape of structures which are provided in a mask onto a substrate, the device comprising: at least one illumination device for homogeneous illumination of a section of the mask, a mask holding device for holding the mask in a mask plane which is defined by an X axis and a Y axis which is perpendicular to the X axis, at least one lens device which is arranged on the side of the mask plane facing away from the at least one illumination device, the at least one lens device for mapping the shape of structures in the mask onto the substrate, a substrate holding device for holding the substrate in a substrate plane which is parallel to the mask plane and at a distance from the at least one lens device, and synchronous movement means for synchronous movement of the at least one illumination device and the at least one lens device in a direction parallel to the mask plane and the substrate plane, the synchronous movement means moving the at least one illumination device and the at least one lens device in a direction parallel to the X axis and/or the Y axis of the mask plane.
