Abstract: A chemical vapor deposition head, suitable in particular for spatial atomic layer deposition at ambient pressure, is provided. The chemical vapor deposition head is produced in a single piece by additive manufacturing, with a network of distribution ducts being formed by cavities formed in the piece. A method for depositing at least one thin layer by such a chemical vapor deposition head is also provided. A vapor deposition system is further provided. The vapor deposition system includes the chemical vapor deposition head and a carriage bearing the chemical vapor deposition head and allowing it to be moved over a substrate. The carriage may also include one or more reservoirs of precursors also produced by additive manufacturing.

Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to an optoelectronic device for converting an electrical signal into electromagnetic radiation or vice-versa, including an active zone sandwiched between first and second electrodes, the optoelectronic device having a stack of layers with a lateral edge and first and second opposite faces, the layers of the stack forming at least the active zone and the first and second electrodes, the stack being intended to receive or emit the electromagnetic radiation through the lateral edge perpendicularly to the direction of stacking of the layers.
