US 2021/0069971 A1 · SYSTEM FOR DEPOSITING MATERIAL AND ASSOCIATED METHOD

Abstract

A deposition system including: a container arranged to contain material to be deposited and including an inlet and an outlet, a pneumatic system arranged to inject, through the entrance, gas in the container, so this gas exerts pressure on the material to be deposited. The deposition system including a controller of the pneumatic system arranged to control at least one injection, through the inlet, of gas at an adjusting pressure, so that a convex meniscus of material to be deposited protrudes from the outlet of the container, then at least one gas' injection, through the inlet, respectively at least a deposition pressure greater than the adjusting pressure, so that the material to be deposited flows out of the container by its outlet.

Dependent claims

A deposition system comprising:

a container arranged to contain material to be deposited and comprising an inlet and an outlet;
a pneumatic system arranged to inject, through the inlet, gas into the container such that this gas exerts, directly or indirectly, a pressure on the material to be deposited;
the deposition system comprising control means of the pneumatic system arranged to control at least:
an injection, through the inlet, of gas at an adjusting pressure, so that a convex meniscus of material to be deposited protrudes from the container at the outlet, and then
at least one injection, through the inlet, of gas at respectively at least one deposition pressure greater than the adjusting pressure, so that the material to be deposited flows out of the container through the outlet.

A deposition method implemented in a deposition system, said system comprising:

a container in which there is material to be deposited and comprising an inlet and an outlet,
a pneumatic system comprising control means of the pneumatic system,
said method comprising:
the pneumatic system injects, through the inlet, gas into the container so that the gas exerts, directly or indirectly, a pressure on the material to be deposited, the method comprising a control, by the control means of the pneumatic system:
of an injection of gas, via the inlet, at an adjusting pressure, so that a convex meniscus of material to be deposited protrudes from the container at the outlet, and
of at least one injection of gas, though the inlet, at respectively at least one deposition pressure greater than the adjusting pressure, so that the material to be deposited flows out of the container in a material deposition on a deposition surface.
