Abstract

An exposure apparatus comprises a fly eye lens through which the light beam from a light source condensed by a first optical system is supplied to a second optical system which collimates the light to direct it to a work through a mask pattern so that the pattern is printed on the work, the fly eye lens being rotated to uniform the distribution of illuminance so that a clear printed pattern is formed on the work without interference fringes.
