Abstract

Embodiments described herein relate to a thermal chamber utilized in the processing of display substrates. The thermal chamber may be part of a larger processing system configured to manufacture OLED devices. The thermal chamber may be configured to heat and cool masks and/or substrates utilized in deposition processes in the processing system. The thermal chamber may include a chamber body defining a volume sized to receive one or more cassettes containing a plurality of masks and/or substrates. Heaters coupled to the chamber body within the volume may be configured to controllably heat masks and/or substrates prior to deposition processes and cool the masks and/or substrates after deposition processes.
