Abstract
A method of manufacturing a vapor cell includes forming a body of the vapor cell having walls defining a cavity thereinbetween, the cavity having an amount of a subject material contained therein. The method also includes forming a pore structure having a substrate material with pores of a substantially uniform dimension formed therein, the pore structure disposed along a portion of one or more of the walls of the vapor cell. The method further includes forming a liner material of a uniform thickness over one or more internal surfaces of the pores, wherein the subject material exhibits a reduced wetting angle on the liner material which is less than a wetting angle of the subject material on the substrate material.
