*'''1.''' The substrate is coated with the masking material.
#The substrate is coated with the masking material.
*'''2'''. The masking material is patterned. The mask must be a negative image of the desired material pattern.  
#The masking material is patterned. The mask must be a negative image of the desired material pattern.  
*'''3'''. The material is deposited on top of both mask and substrate. The mask sidewall slope should be negative in order to prevent the material covering the sidewalls during deposition.
