Microradiology with coherent X-rays enabled study of this process in real-time. This led to the discovery of a fundamental role of the microelectrode-structure distance: for short distances the deposition rate increases dramatically but the product becomes porous. This role is explained qualitatively with the interplay between metal-ion diffusion and migration in the deposition process.
