  • Patent number: 11969677
    Abstract: A method for eliminating bubbles from a liquid dispensing system includes flowing a liquid containing bubbles into a liquid inlet of a tank from a filter to substantially fill the tank, wherein substantially all bubbles accumulate in an upper portion of the tank having a lateral dimension greater than a lateral dimension of a lower portion of the tank, and flowing the liquid into the tank comprises flowing the liquid through an inlet pipe extending at an acute angle relative to a horizontally-oriented axis of the tank. The method further includes flowing a liquid substantially free of bubbles out of the tank via a liquid outlet at the lower portion of the tank for dispensing to a substrate.

  • Patent number: 7807551
    Abstract: In a method for fabricating a flexible pixel array substrate, first, a release layer is formed on a rigid substrate. Next, on the release layer, a polymer film is formed, the adhesive strength between the rigid substrate and the release layer being higher than that between the release layer and the polymer film. The polymer film is formed by spin coating a polymer monomer and performing a curing process to form a polymer layer. Afterwards, a pixel array is formed on the polymer film. The polymer film with the pixel array formed thereon is separated from the rigid substrate.
