A overhanging device cavity structure comprises a substrate and a cavity disposed in or on the substrate. The cavity comprises a first cavity side wall and a second cavity side wall opposing the first cavity side wall on an opposite side of the cavity from the first cavity side wall. A support extends from the first cavity side wall to the second cavity side wall and at least partially divides the cavity. A device is disposed on, for example in direct contact with, the support and extends from the support into the cavity.
