US Patent 11479854 Apparatus and method of depositing a layer at atmospheric pressure

A method of depositing a layer includes measuring a physical property that is related to an air pressure in a reactor chamber of a deposition apparatus. A main gas mixture including a source gas and an auxiliary gas is introduced into the reactor chamber at atmospheric pressure, the source gas including a precursor material and a carrier gas. A gas flow of at least one of the source gas and the auxiliary gas into the reactor chamber is controlled in response to a change of the air pressure in the reactor chamber.
