Abstract: Methods of modulating flow during vapor jet deposition of organic materials are provided. A method may include ejecting a vapor entrained in a delivery gas from a nozzle onto a substrate upon which the vapor condenses. A confinement gas may be provided that has a flow direction opposing a flow direction of the delivery gas ejected from the nozzle. A vacuum source may be provided that is adjacent to a delivery gas aperture of the nozzle. The method may include adjusting, by an actuator, a fly height separation between a deposition nozzle aperture of the nozzle and a deposition target.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for depositing organic material on a substrate are provided, in which one or more shield gas flows prevents contamination of the substrate by the chamber ambient. Thus, multiple layers of the same or different materials may be deposited in a single deposition chamber, without the need for movement between different deposition chambers, and with reduced chance of cross-contamination between layers.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosed subject matter provide a micronozzle array formed from monolithic silicon. The micronozzle array may have a plurality of nozzles, where each nozzle of the plurality of nozzles including an integrated plug valve that allows flow from the nozzle to be attenuated separately from each other nozzle of the plurality of nozzles. Each of the plurality of nozzles may include a microchannel, formed from the monolithic silicon, having a first channel portion and a second channel portion, where the first channel portion is narrower than the second channel portion, and where the first channel portion forms an aperture of the nozzle that is configured to eject vapor from the microchannel. Each of the plurality of nozzles may include a stem, formed from the monolithic silicon that includes the integrated plug valve is suspended in the microchannel to attenuate the flow from the nozzle.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosed subject matter provide an apparatus having a device with a micronozzle array disposed on a micro-fabricated fluidic die. The device may include a first gas distribution plate and a second opposing plate, where the micro-fabricated fluidic die is disposed between the first gas distribution plate and the second opposing plate, wherein the first gas distribution plate is irreversibly joined to the micronozzle array with a seal that is gas-tight, and where the first gas distribution plate includes a plurality of sealed flow paths. A manifold may be reversibly joined to the first gas distribution plate, where the micro-fabricated fluidic die and the first gas distribution plate and the second opposing plate are disposed between the manifold. A thermally conductive plate may have at least one window that provides a clearance fit for the device across a range of motion relative to the thermally conductive plate.

Abstract: Systems and arrangements of OVJP deposition devices are provided, in which one or more organic material crucibles are directly attached to an injection block and a print head without the need for external delivery components such as feedtubes. Each crucible may be hermetically sealed until it is attached to the injection block, allowing for a single device to provide for storage, transport, and deposition of the organic material.

Abstract: Techniques and devices are provided for attaching a die to a metal manifold. A metal-containing ink is used to deposit a metal trace on the die and thereby to form a gasket, after which the die is compressed against the manifold to form a sealed connection between the two.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosed subject matter provide a vapor distribution manifold that ejects organic vapor laden gas into a chamber and withdraws chamber gas, where vapor ejected from the manifold is incident on, and condenses onto, a deposition surface within the chamber that moves relative to one or more print heads in a direction orthogonal to a platen normal and a linear extent of the manifold. The volumetric flow of gas withdrawn by the manifold from the chamber may be greater than the volumetric flow of gas injected into the chamber by the manifold. The net outflow of gas from the chamber through the manifold may prevent organic vapor from diffusing beyond the extent of the gap between the manifold and deposition surface. The manifold may be configured so that long axes of delivery and exhaust apertures are perpendicular to a print direction.
