an optical integrator which has a plurality of wavefront division facets arrayed on a third face, the third face crossing an optical axis of light from the second deflector; and

a rotation driver which rotates at least one of the first deflector and the second deflector,

wherein at least one of the first and second deflectors rotates about an optical axis of the illumination optical system or about an axis parallel to the optical axis in order to adjust a pattern of an illumination distribution.

the periods of the first and second deflectors are different from each other.

3. The illumination optical system according to claim 1 , wherein

the periods of the first and second deflectors are equal to each other.

4. The illumination optical system according to claim 1 , wherein

the light from the second deflector has an illumination distribution which periodically changes on the third face.

5. The illumination optical system according to claim 4 , wherein

the illumination distribution changes by rotation of at least one of the first deflector and the second deflector.

6. The illumination optical system according to claim 1 , wherein

at least one of the first deflector and the second deflector moves in a direction crossing the optical axis.

7. The illumination optical system according to claim 1 , wherein

the rotation driver rotates at least one of the first deflector and the second deflector so as to change a difference depending upon positions on the illumination target surface, in an angular distribution of light intensity within an aperture of light focused on the illumination target surface.
