Abstract
To fill a hole or trench structure in an article, such as a semiconductor wafer, a layer is formed on the article. The layer extends over the structure so as to seal the mouth thereof. Then, the wafer and layer are subject to elevated pressure and elevated temperature such as to cause material of the layer to flow into the structure.
