An exposure device includes: a light source (LS) which emits a pulse light; and a variable shaped mask (8) which has a plurality of aligned micro movable mirrors and forms an arbitrary pattern by selectively changing the operation state of the movable mirrors. A substrate (P) is exposed to the light emitted from the light source and passes through the variable shaped mask. The exposure device further includes a control device (100) which controls the operation timing to change the operation state of the movable mirrors and the pulse application timing of the pulse light emitted from the light source so that they are synchronized.
