Organic vapor jet printing system

Abstract

An organic vapor jet printing (OVJP) device is provided that includes an OVJP print die having one or more delivery channels to deliver organic material and carrier gas to a region below the print die and one or more exhaust channels to remove material from below the print die. A directly-heated delivery line connected to the one or more delivery channels and a source of the organic material external to the OVJP print die includes a resistive material and a plurality of electrical connections to the resistive material. When a current is applied to the resistive material via the plurality of electrical connections, the resistive material heats the interior of the directly-heated delivery line.
