Abstract

The present invention provides a method of forming a free standing shape made of a material containing refractory metal, which entails providing a mandrel in a CVD enclosure, injecting a refractory halide gas and a reducing gas in the enclosure, reacting the gases in the enclosure to generate a material containing refractory metal, growing a layer of the material containing refractory metal on the mandrel and removing the mandrel to obtain the free standing shape, wherein the reducing gases is a silicon hydride gas or a mixture thereof.
