Seems like even in a vacuum it could still make a metal foam, but perhaps would help minimize defects?

That's just PVD or CVD, which does massively decrease defects but being a gaseous process slows down growth considerably.

Parallelization? As in you grow layers upon layers in parallel, align them and chemically bond them?
