  • Publication number: 20230357918
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are provided for organic vapor jet deposition (OVJP), which require significantly fewer print heads than conventional OVJP deposition systems. The disclosed OVJP systems include half the number of OVJP print heads than a conventional system, or less, and provide for relative movement of the substrate and print heads to allow for rapid and comprehensive material deposition over the full surface of the substrate.

  • Publication number: 20230363244
    Abstract: An organic vapor jet printing (OVJP) device is provided that includes an OVJP print die having one or more delivery channels to deliver organic material and carrier gas to a region below the print die and one or more exhaust channels to remove material from below the print die. A directly-heated delivery line connected to the one or more delivery channels and a source of the organic material external to the OVJP print die includes a resistive material and a plurality of electrical connections to the resistive material. When a current is applied to the resistive material via the plurality of electrical connections, the resistive material heats the interior of the directly-heated delivery line.

  • Publication number: 20170294291
    Abstract: An electron-beam induced plasma is utilized to establish a non-mechanical, electrical contact to a device of interest. This plasma source may be referred to as atmospheric plasma source and may be configured to provide a plasma column of very fine diameter and controllable characteristics. The plasma column traverses the atmospheric space between the plasma source into the atmosphere and the device of interest and acts as an electrical path to the device of interest in such a way that a characteristic electrical signal can be collected from the device. Additionally, by controlling the gases flowing into the plasma column the probe may be used for surface modification, etching and deposition.

  • Patent number: 9523714
    Abstract: A non-mechanical contact signal measurement apparatus includes a first conductor on a structure under test and a gas in contact with the first conductor. At least one electron beam is directed into the gas so as to induce a plasma in the gas where the electron beam passes through the gas. A second conductor is in electrical contact with the plasma. A signal source is coupled to an electrical measurement device through the first conductor, the plasma, and the second conductor when the plasma is directed on the first conductor. The electrical measurement device is responsive to the signal source.

  • Publication number: 20150097592
    Abstract: A method of testing a flat panel display including an array of pixels and a peripheral circuit configured to provide signals to the pixels is disclosed. The method includes applying at least one test signal to the peripheral circuit, acquiring one or more voltage images of the peripheral circuit, and detecting a defect in the peripheral circuit based on the acquired voltage images.

  • Patent number: 7468611
    Abstract: A system performs continuous full linear scan of a flat media. The system includes, in part, a chuck, and at least first, second and third gantries. The chuck is adapted to support the flat media during the test. The first gantry includes at least one linear array of non-contacting sensors that spans the width of the flat media and is adapted to move across an entire length of the flat media. Each of the second and third gantries includes a probe head that spans the width of the flat media and each is adapted to apply an electrical signal to the flat media. Each probe head is further adapted to move along a direction substantially perpendicular to the surface of the flat media during the times when the first gantry is in motion and while test signals are being continuously applied.

  • Patent number: 6933530
    Abstract: A process for direct integration of a thin-film silicon p-n junction diode with a magnetic tunnel junction for use in advanced magnetic random access memory (MRAM) cells for high performance, non-volatile memory arrays. The process is based on pulsed laser processing for the fabrication of vertical polycrystalline silicon electronic device structures, in particular p-n junction diodes, on films of metals deposited onto low temperature-substrates such as ceramics, dielectrics, glass, or polymers. The process preserves underlayers and structures onto which the devices are typically deposited, such as silicon integrated circuits. The process involves the low temperature deposition of at least one layer of silicon, either in an amorphous or a polycrystalline phase on a metal layer. Dopants may be introduced in the silicon film during or after deposition.
