Abstract
The cavity has first and second main walls covered by a photoresist. The photoresist is subjected to electronic or electromagnetic radiation of wavelength comprised between 12.5 nm and 15 nm. A first thickness of the photoresist is exposed to form a first area of sacrificial material and a second area of different nature defining the surface coating. The sacrificial material is removed, the surface coating is formed and has a surface against one of the main walls and a free opposite surface. The lateral dimensions of the surface coating are defined in the cavity by the radiation through the first main wall.
