摘要： A partially assembled one-time-use camera includes a film section that longitudinally extends from a rotatable film winding spool in a film cartridge and that is engaged with a rotatable metering sprocket, and a separate rear cover part that is to be placed over the film section and the film cartridge and is constructed to prevent the film section from retracting out of engagement with the metering sprocket. The film winding spool is rotatable in a film winding direction to wind the film section into the film cartridge. If the film cartridge is allowed to rotate in the film winding direction before the rear cover is placed over the film section and the film cartridge, the film section will retract out of engagement with the metering sprocket. Consequently, a cartridge retention piece is positioned against the film cartridge to prevent the film cartridge from being rotated in the film winding direction. This prevents the film section from retracting out of engagement with the metering sprocket when the rear cover part is not placed over the film section and the film cartridge.

摘要： A vapor deposition source for use in vacuum chamber for coating an organic layer on a substrate of an OLED device, includes a manifold including side and bottom walls defining a chamber for receiving organic material, and an aperture plate disposed between the side walls, the aperture plate having a plurality of spaced apart apertures for emitting vaporized organic material; the aperture plate including conductive material which in response to an electrical current produces heat; means for heating the organic material to a temperature which causes its vaporization, and heating the side walls of the manifold; and an electrical insulator coupling the aperture plate to the side walls for concentrating heat in the unsupported region of the aperture plate adjacent to the apertures, whereby the distance between the aperture plate and the substrate can be reduced to provide high coating thickness uniformity on the substrate. A method for coating an organic layer on onto a substrate in a vacuum chamber includes providing a manifold including side and bottom walls defining a chamber for receiving organic material. and an aperture plate disposed between the side walls, the aperture elate having a plurality of spaced apart apertures for emitting vaporized organic material; heating the organic material to a temperature which causes its vaporization, and the side walls of the manifold, the aperture plate includes a first aperture plate emissive surface that radiates energy into the chamber and a second aperture plate emissive surface that radiates less energy to the substrate wherein the second aperture elate emissive surface has an emissivity lower than the first aperture plate emissive surface; and concentrating heat in an unsupported region of the aperture plate adjacent to the apertures by providing an electrical insulator coupling the aperture plate to the side walls.

摘要： Methods and apparatus for controlling and delivering a vaporous element or compound, for example, selenium or sulfur, from a solid source to a work piece are provided. The methods and apparatus may be used in photovoltaic cell manufacturing. The apparatus may comprise a treatment chamber, for example, a box furnace or a tube furnace. The chamber may include an inner enclosure, an outer enclosure, and heating sources capable of independent thermal control, for example, in compliance with a predetermined heating schedule. The apparatus include devices and mechanisms for isolating the treatment chambers from the ambient environment. The methods and apparatus may be adapted to control metalloid vapor delivery in photovoltaic cell processing, for example, the processing of CIGS and CIGSS photovoltaic cells.
