Seeking electrolytic process for silicon plating

Q. Is there any electrolytic process for silicon plating available in the electroplating market? If anyone knows, please reply to me.

Thank you very much.

A. Hi, David. I have never heard of even an attempt to electroplate silicon onto a substrate. I doubt that it can be done via electroplating technology. You might see what a vacuum plating shop or supplier says though. Good luck.

Regards,
