An electrical energy storage device includes a substrate having an outer
surface and having a plurality of cavities communicating with the outer
surface. The cavities have interior cavity surfaces. A first electrode
layer is deposited at least over the interior cavity surfaces. An
electrolyte separator layer is formed over the first electrode layer so
as to fill the cavities and to extend over the outer surface of the
planar substrate. A second electrode layer is formed over the electrolyte
separator layer on the outer surface of the planar substrate.
