Zusammenfassung:The disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for forming a patterned layer of material on a substrate. In one arrangement, a selected portion of a surface of a substrate is irradiated during a deposition process. The irradiation locally drives the deposition process in the selected portion and thereby forms a patterned layer of material in a pattern defined by the selected portion. A bias voltage of alternating polarity is applied to the substrate during the irradiation to periodically drive secondary electrons generated inside the substrate by the irradiation towards the surface in the selected portion.
