Abstract:
An apparatus and method for liquid-phase dispensing of layers onto a substrate of an electronic device. An absorbent material reduces or eliminates splatter of printing material on the substrate during continuous printing operations. The absorbent material can be regenerated by exposure of new surface area or vacuum drawing of printing material through the absorbent material.
Abstract:
Describe are encapsulation assemblies useful for electronic device, having a substrate and an electrically active area, the encapsulation assembly comprising a barrier sheet; and a barrier structure that extends from the sheet, wherein the barrier structure is configured so as to substantially hermetically seal an electronic device when in use thereon. In some embodiments, the barrier structure is designed to be used with adhesives to bond the encapsulation assembly to the electronic device. Gettering materials may be optionally used.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of adhering a getter material to a surface, wherein the getter is used to remove and control contaminant gases in the environment surrounding the active layers in an electronic device. The getter material is applied from a getter composition comprising getter particles, inorganic binders and a liquid medium to create a composition of a consistency that can be deposited on the surface in any pattern and in any thickness desired. The surface on which the getter composition is deposited can be heated separately from the electronic device so as to activate the getter material and cause the particles to adhere to the surface without the need of additional adhesive layers or other materials.

Abstract:
An apparatus and method for liquid-phase coating of layers onto a substrate of an electronic device. Electo-form nozzles containing a body and disc are arranged in an array to perform multiple depositions on the substrate. A low solids mixture produces a very thin dried film of electronic materials.
Abstract:
Described are encapsulation assemblies useful for electronic devices having a substrate and an active area, the encapsulation assembly comprising a barrier sheet and a barrier structure that contains an adhesive and a discreet material, wherein the barrier structure is configured so as to substantially hermetically seal an electronic device when in use thereon. The barrier structure bonds the encapsulation assembly to the electronic device and contains a getter material to protect against environmental degradation.
