    Abstract: An apparatus and a method for forming a structure within a semiconductor processing apparatus are disclosed. The apparatus includes a first reaction chamber, the first reaction chamber configured to hold at least one substrate having a first layer. The apparatus also includes a precursor delivery system configured to perform an infiltration by sequentially pulsing a first precursor and a second precursor on the substrate. The apparatus may also include a first removal system configured for removing at least a portion of the first layer disposed on the substrate while leaving an infiltrated material, wherein the infiltration and the removing at least a portion of the first layer take place within the same semiconductor processing apparatus. A method of forming a structure within a semiconductor processing apparatus is also disclosed, the method including providing a substrate for processing in a reaction chamber, the substrate having a first layer disposed on the substrate. The method may also include performing a first layer infiltration by sequentially pulsing a first precursor and a second precursor on the substrate, wherein an infiltrated material forms in the first layer from the reaction of the first precursor and the second precursor. The method may also include removing at least a portion of the first layer disposed on the substrate after performing the infiltration, wherein the infiltration and the removing at least a portion of the first layer take place with the same semiconductor processing apparatus.
