Abstract: A method of depositing a layer onto a substrate, comprising heating an evaporator to a temperature capable of completely evaporating the evaporant to be deposited, dispensing into the evaporator one or more quantized units of the evaporant where the evaporant is completely vaporized, providing an area vapor dispenser having a plurality of apertures, and directing the vaporized evaporant from the evaporator to the area vapor dispenser so that the evaporant is dispensed through the apertures to deposit the layer on the substrate.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for depositing a layer onto a substrate, including heating an evaporator to a temperature capable of completely evaporating the evaporant to be deposited; dispensing into the evaporator one or more quantized units of the evaporant that completely vaporizes; introducing a flow of a carrier gas into the evaporator before, during, or after vaporization of the evaporant so as to cause a flow of the mixture of the carrier gas and the vapor of the evaporant; and directing the flow of the mixture onto the surface of the substrate to form the layer.

Abstract: An organic light-emitting device includes a substrate; a first electrode and a second electrode positioned relative to the substrate in which at least one of the electrodes is the transparent electrode; an organic light-emitting element including at least a light-emitting layer disposed between the two electrodes; and a performance enhancement layer disposed between the two electrodes; wherein the performance enhancement layer is high index and has a thickness of at least 20 nm.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for obtaining affinity ligands for isolating tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA). Ligands binding tPA with high specificity at pH 7 and releasing tPA at pH 5 or lower are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods whereby additional ligands having desirable preselected binding and release (elution) characteristics may be isolated, permitting the development of tailored ligands to meet the purification problems presented by any particular feed stream containing tPA.

Abstract: Various OLED display and device structures are disclosed which reduce shorting.

Abstract: A white light emitting OLED apparatus includes a microcavity OLED device and a light-integrating element, wherein the microcavity OLED device has a white light emitting organic EL element and the microcavity OLED device is configured to have angular-dependent narrow-band emission, and the light-integrating element integrates the angular-dependent narrow-band emission from different angles from the microcavity OLED device to form white light emission.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for producing a continuous slab of polymeric foam uses an open topped trough with an upper pour plate adjacent to a moving conveyor. A liquid reactant foam mixture is continually introduced into the bottom of the trough and allowed to rise and partially expand until the mixture flows over the pour plate and onto a moving conveyor to complete its expansion and cure as it is conveyed. The inner surfaces of the trough are chilled to reduce the reaction rate of the liquid foam mixture and thereby prevent the undesired build-up of cured foam on the surfaces of the trough. The chilled trough may be formed from a plurality of hollowed panels fitted with interior baffles to define inner fluid passageways. A chilled fluid, such as water, is pumped through the passageways. Longer production runs with fewer defects are advantages of this apparatus and method.
