Abstract: A method and an apparatus (10) for making thin layers from particles, wherein the particles are deposited on a carrier fluid flowing by gravity along a ramp (12) leading to a dam (18). The particles are held back at the bottom of the ramp (12), thereby causing the particles to be piled up one against the other in a monolayer configuration.

Abstract: The present invention concerns an apparatus, a process and a cartridge for producing and transferring a thin film to a substrate withdrawing the thin film. The apparatus includes the substrate, a transfer lip, a gap defined between the substrate and the transfer lip and a liquid film supported on the transfer lip and carrying a thin film in a direction towards and into the gap, the liquid of the liquid film forming a capillary bridge spanning the length of the gap and supporting the thin film over the gap onto the substrate. The process includes the steps of supplying the liquid film, positioning the transfer lip and substrate, supporting the liquid film towards and into the gap, forming the capillary bridge and withdrawing the thin film. The modular cartridge is also described.

Abstract: Se describen un metodo y un aparato (10) para hacer capas delgadas a partir de particulas, en donde las particulas son depositadas sobre un fluido portador que fluye por gravedad a lo largo de una rampa (12) conduciendo a un dique (18). Las particulas son mantenidas en el fondo de la rampa (12), ocasionando asi que las particulas sean apiladas una contra otra en una configuracion de monocapa.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling the thickness of a thin film or thin layer of discrete particles or of an hetero-geneous mixture characterized in that the interfacial tension forces between the solution or suspension and its environment are used as the driving forces to evenly spread the solution, suspension or mixture while the solvent evaporates and/or dilutes.
