Abstract

A method for making a microcavity in an enamel layer is disclosed. For this purpose, a layer of a carbon-based material with the dimensions of the microcavity to be obtained is provided. This layer is coated with an enamel except in a limited zone. The unit is heated to high temperature so as to cause combustion of the carbon-based material. The combustion gases escape through the reduced zone.
