  • Patent number: 6296894
    Abstract: An evaporation source includes an insulating container adapted to receive a volume of source material therein and a heater closely disposed around the container for heating and evaporating the source material into a vapor. The effective contact area of the container in contact with the source material is correlated to the volume of source material. The evaporation source is useful in the preparation of organic EL devices.

  • Publication number: 20010008121
    Abstract: An apparatus for preparing an organic EL device includes a substrate (1) and an evaporation source (2) in an evaporation chamber. The evaporation source (2) has a container (2) made of an insulator with a thermal conductivity of at least 50 W/m·k and receiving a source material therein and a surrounding resistance heater (3). When the source material is heated and evaporated from the source onto the substrate, a detector (5) detects the rate of evaporation of the source material on the substrate and delivers a detection signal to a control unit (6), which controls the heater (3) in accordance with the signal.
