In one embodiment, a method of forming an out-of-plane electrode includes forming an oxide layer above an upper surface of a device layer, etching an etch stop perimeter defining trench extending through the oxide layer, forming a first cap layer portion on an upper surface of the oxide layer and within the etch stop perimeter defining trench, etching a first electrode perimeter defining trench extending through the first cap layer portion and stopping at the oxide layer, depositing a first material portion within the first electrode perimeter defining trench, depositing a second cap layer portion above the deposited first material portion, and vapor releasing a portion of the oxide layer with the etch stop portion providing a lateral etch stop. |
