ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates generally to a new structure and a method for repairing electrical lines, and more particularly, the invention encompasses a structure and a method for repairing electrical lines on a ceramic or a semiconductor substrate. On a substrate that has an open or an electrical discontinuity, one or more trenches or grooves are made next to the open, or discontinuity and using standard deposition process one or more metals are deposited in the open to provide or restore electrical continuity while the excess deposition material is allowed to drain or propagate into the trench.
