Abstract
A laser induced direct writing pyrolysis of a refractory metal or metal silicide on substrates is described. Typical reactants comprise flowing WF.sub.6, MoF.sub.6 or TiCl.sub.4 with SiH.sub.4 and an inert gas, such as Argon. A preferable substrate surface is a polyimide film. The refractory metal film may comprise low resistivity W, M, or Ti, or silicides thereof, having a predetermined resistance depending on the relative ratio of reactants. The invention is useful, inter alia, for repair of defective circuit interconnects, and formation of interconnects or resistors on substrates.
