    Abstract: Apparatus and techniques for use in manufacturing a light emitting device, such as an organic light emitting diode (OLED) device can include using one or more modules having a controlled environment. The controlled environment can be maintained at a pressure at about atmospheric pressure or above atmospheric pressure. The modules can be arranged to provide various processing regions and to facilitate printing or otherwise depositing one or more patterned organic layers of an OLED device, such as an organic encapsulation layer (OEL) of an OLED device. In an example, uniform support for a substrate can be provided at least in part using a gas cushion, such as during one or more of a printing, holding, or curing operation comprising an OEL fabrication process. In another example, uniform support for the substrate can be provided using a distributed vacuum region, such as provided by a porous medium.

    Abstract translation: 用于制造发光器件(例如有机发光二极管(OLED))器件的装置和技术可以包括使用具有受控环境的一个或多个模块。 受控环境可以保持在大气压或大气压以上的压力。 这些模块可以被布置成提供各种处理区域并且便于打印或以其他方式沉积OLED器件(例如OLED器件的有机封装层(OEL))的一个或多个图案化的有机层。 在一个示例中,可以至少部分地使用气垫来提供对基底的均匀支撑,例如在包括OEL制造工艺的一个或多个印刷,保持或固化操作期间。 在另一个实例中,可以使用诸如由多孔介质提供的分布式真空区域来提供对基底的均匀支撑。

    Abstract: A printer includes a substrate support, a printhead assembly, first and second actuators, and a controller. The printhead assembly deposits material on a substrate supported on the substrate support. The first actuator is disposed at a side of the substrate support and coupled to a first linear track disposed along the side of the substrate support and oriented in a first direction. The second actuator is disposed at an end of the substrate support and coupled to a second linear track disposed along the end of the substrate support and oriented in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The first and second actuators are positioned to engage with the substrate simultaneously. The controller moves the first and second actuators together to rotate the substrate.
