    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: Embodiments of the disclosed subject matter provide a device that may have a first depositor that includes one or more delivery apertures surrounded by one or more exhaust apertures, where the one or more delivery apertures and the one or more exhaust apertures are enclosed within a perimeter of a boss that protrudes from a substrate-facing side of the one or more delivery apertures. The delivery channels for the one or more delivery apertures and exhaust channels for the one or more exhaust apertures may be routed orthogonally to each other. The one or more delivery apertures may be configured to permit jets of delivery gas pass through a lower surface of the first depositor. The lower surface of the first depositor may include the one or more exhaust apertures to remove surplus vapor from a delivery zone. Embodiments may also provide a method of forming a print head.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosed subject matter provide a device having a print head that includes a micronozzle array of depositors to deposit a material on a substrate. A reflective optical device may reflect a signal output by at least one optical sensor, and to reflect the signal from a surface of the substrate to the optical sensor. A processor may determine a distance between the optical sensor and the target surface of the substrate. The device may include one or more actuators coupled to the at least one print head to move the print head relative to an internal reference frame and adjust a position of the print head to the substrate. The sensor may be fixedly coupled with a mount to the internal reference frame. The print head may be configured to move independently of the optical sensor in at least one axis of linear or rotational motion.
