<title>Laser-induced liquid phase deposition (LCLD): state of the art</title>

12 A review of results of a last few years investigation in the field of laser light induced liquid phase metal deposition on different substrates is presented. The role of liquid phase chemical deposition techniques represents a certain interest for contemporary micro technology because of its technical and economical advantages compared to other technics e.g. chemical vapor phase deposition. The methods do not require harmful precursors, complicated vacuum tools, and it is cost effective.
