Abstract
An organic light-emitting diode (OLED) deposition system has a workpiece transport system configured to position a workpiece within the OLED deposition system under vacuum conditions, a deposition chamber configured to deposit a first layer of organic material onto the workpiece, a metrology system having one or more sensors measure of the workpiece after deposition in the deposition chamber, and a control system to control a deposition of the layer of organic material onto the workpiece. The metrology system includes a digital holographic microscope positioned to receive light from the workpiece and generate a thickness profile measurement of a layer on the workpiece. The control system is configured to adjust processing of a subsequent workpiece at the deposition chamber or adjust processing of the workpiece at a subsequent deposition chamber based on the thickness profile.
