1. An apparatus for depositing one or more organic materials onto a substrate, comprising:
- a source to receive a quantity of organic particles containing solvent, the source configured to remove solvent from the quantity of organic particles to provide a quantity of substantially solvent-free organic particles;
a discharge nozzle having a plurality of openings to receive the quantity of substantially solvent-free organic particles and to discharge the quantity of substantially solvent-free organic particles from the discharge nozzle onto the substrate;
a thermal source associated with the discharge nozzle, the thermal source configured to receive the quantity of substantially solvent-free organic particles from the source and to deliver at least a portion of the quantity of substantially solvent-free organic particles to the discharge nozzle; and
a housing to integrate the source and the discharge nozzle, the housing defining a flow path between the source and the discharge nozzle.
