Abstract:
1. A method of manufacturing a thin film on a substrate having, a length and a width, the method comprising: spacing the substrate apart from a patterning sheet of a thin film deposition apparatus; passing a deposition material from a deposition source nozzle unit through openings in the patterning sheet, the openings being spaced apart from one another in a first direction, the patterning sheet having a length which is substantially less than the length of the substrate; and depositing the deposition material along the length of the substrate during a relative motion between the patterning sheet and the substrate to form the thin film, wherein the deposition material from the deposition source nozzle unit is patterned on the substrate by the patterning sheet in a pattern in which the deposition material is deposited at first regions on the substrate corresponding to the openings and is not deposited at second regions on the substrate adjacent the first regions, and wherein, in a state in which the patterning, sheet for patterning the deposition material on the substrate is adjacent to the substrate and not coupled to the substrate, deposition is performed while the substrate moves with respect to the thin film deposition apparatus in a direction perpendicular to the first direction.
