1. A shadow mask deposition system comprising:

  • a plurality of series connected deposition vacuum vessels;

    a material deposition source disposed in each deposition vacuum vessel;

    a compound shadow mask disposed in each deposition vacuum vessel, each compound shadow mask comprised of a plurality of identical shadow masks arranged in a stack, each compound shadow mask having at least one opening therethrough defined by the whole or partial alignment of apertures in the identical shadow masks comprising said compound shadow mask; and

    means for translating a substrate through the series connected deposition vacuum vessels to receive a deposit of the material from each material deposition source via the at least one opening in the corresponding compound shadow mask to form at least one electronic element on said substrate with the material from each material deposition source.
