Process for manufacturing a microelectromechanical interaction system for a storage medium

A process for manufacturing an interaction system of a microelectromechanical type for a storage medium, the interaction system provided with a supporting element and an interaction element carried by the supporting element, envisages the steps of: providing a wafer of semiconductor material having a substrate with a first type of conductivity (P) and a top surface; forming a first interaction region having a second type of conductivity (N), opposite to the first type of conductivity (P), in a surface portion of the substrate in the proximity of the top surface; and carrying out an electrochemical etch of the substrate starting from the top surface, the etching being selective with respect to the second type of conductivity (N), so as to remove the surface portion of the substrate and separate the first interaction region from the substrate, thus forming the supporting element.
