Laser induced thermal imaging apparatus and method of manufacturing organic light emitting display device using the same

A method of manufacturing an organic light emitting display device using a laser induced thermal imaging (LITI) method, the method comprising:

• disposing an acceptor substrate on a stage;
• disposing a donor film separate from the acceptor substrate on first and second members of a supporting portion, the first and second members being individually moveable up and down relative to the stage and configured to support first and second end portions of the donor film, and the donor film including a film to be disposed on the acceptor substrate;
• removing gas between the acceptor substrate and the donor film;
• laminating the donor film on the acceptor substrate;
• transferring the film of the donor film onto the acceptor substrate;
• and
• delaminating the donor film from the acceptor substrate.

A method of manufacturing an organic light emitting display device using a laser induced thermal imaging (LITI) method, the method comprising:

• disposing an acceptor substrate on a stage;
• disposing a donor film separate from the acceptor substrate, the donor film including a film to be disposed on the acceptor substrate;
• maintaining a uniform distance between the acceptor substrate and the donor film while removing gas between the acceptor substrate and the donor film, wherein maintaining the uniform distance includes holding the donor film taut, by pulling a first end portion of the donor film and a second end portion, opposite the first end portion, in opposite directions;
• laminating the donor film on the acceptor substrate;
• transferring the film of the donor film onto the acceptor substrate;
• and
• delaminating the donor film from the acceptor substrate.
