摘要:
A thin film deposition apparatus that can be simply applied to produce large-sized display devices on a mass scale and that improves manufacturing yield. The thin film deposition apparatus includes a deposition source that discharges a deposition material; a deposition source nozzle unit disposed at a side of the deposition source and including a plurality of deposition source nozzles arranged in a first direction; and a patterning slit sheet disposed opposite to the deposition source nozzle unit and including a plurality of patterning slits arranged in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction. A deposition is performed while the substrate or the thin film deposition apparatus moves relative to each other in the first direction, and the deposition source, the deposition source nozzle unit, and the patterning slit sheet are formed integrally with each other.
摘要:
A thin film deposition apparatus used to manufacture large substrates on a mass scale and that allows high-definition patterning, and a method of manufacturing an organic light-emitting display apparatus using the same, the apparatus includes a loading unit fixing a substrate onto an electrostatic chuck; a deposition unit including a chamber maintained in a vacuum state and a thin film deposition assembly disposed in the chamber, separated from the substrate by a predetermined distance, to deposit a thin film on the substrate fixed on the electrostatic chuck; an unloading unit separating the substrate on which a deposition process is completed, from the electrostatic chuck; a first circulation unit sequentially moving the electrostatic chuck on which the substrate is fixed, to the loading unit, the deposition unit, and the unloading unit; and a second circulation unit returning the electrostatic chuck separated from the substrate to the loading unit from the unloading unit, wherein the first circulation unit passes through the chamber when passing through the deposition unit.
