Abstract

A firing chamber is formed in a fluid ejection device. The firing chamber is substantially defined by a barrier layer and a thin film stack. The barrier layer is formed over the thin film stack. The thin film stack is on a substrate and defines the bottom of the firing chamber. A sacrificial layer is encapsulated between the thin film stack and the barrier layer. The sacrificial layer is removed.
