Abstract: An induction heating apparatus includes a susceptor defining a reaction chamber. A housing is spaced from the susceptor opposite the reaction chamber and defines a port. A void space is defined between the housing and the susceptor. An induction coil extends through the port and is disposed within the void space for conducting an electric current to heat the susceptor to heat the reaction chamber. A flange comprises a metal material and is coupled to the housing at the port for sealing the port with the induction coil extending through the flange. An isolator is disposed between the flange and the housing to prevent the electric current from passing into the housing.

Abstract: A manufacturing apparatus deposits material on a carrier body. The manufacturing apparatus includes a housing defining a chamber. The housing defines an inlet for introducing a deposition composition, which comprises the material or a precursor thereof, into the chamber. The housing also defines an outlet through the housing for exhausting the deposition composition from the chamber. An electrode is disposed through the housing with the electrode at least partially disposed within the chamber. A socket has an exterior surface and is connected to the electrode within the chamber for receiving the carrier body. A release coating is disposed on the exterior surface of the socket for promoting separation of the socket from the carrier body, and the material deposited thereon, to harvest the carrier body.
