CHAPTER 3 LASER EXPOSURE SYSTEM
The laser exposure system consists of the following major components:
The machine uses a small-diameter, 12-facet polygon mirror, a lens construction
possesing a large angle of radiation, and a single-beam laser, all with considerations to high
speed, low power, and low noise operation.
