  • Publication number: 20190305224
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosed subject matter provide systems and methods of depositing a film on a selective area of a substrate. A first jet of a first material may be ejected from a first nozzle assembly of a jet head having a plurality of nozzle assemblies to form a first portion of a film deposition on the substrate. A second jet of a second material may be ejected from a second nozzle assembly of the plurality of nozzle assemblies, the second nozzle assembly being aligned with the first nozzle assembly parallel to a direction of motion between the plurality of nozzle assemblies and the substrate, and the second material being different than the first material. The second material may react with the first portion of the film deposition to form a composite film deposition on the substrate when using reactive gas precursors.
