Hi,
I am looking for some inputs on how to infiltrate a microstructure with
silicon. This structure is quite complex with many layers (>10) and I need
to infiltrate the gaps in all the layers with Si. I can only do a one-sided
deposition. We have had very little success with CVD type processes (done at
various temps, pressures), because of pinch-off.
I am trying to find out if this structure can be filled from a silicon melt,
preferrably a high pressure silicon melt. If so, I would appreciate any
ideas on where I might be able to do this.
Thanks in advance.
