1. A method of manufacturing a container, comprising:
forming a metallic sidewall extending between a top and a bottom of the container, comprising an internal sidewall surface and an external sidewall surface;
forming a metallic base at the bottom of the container, comprising an internal base surface and an external base surface;
forming an opening at the top of the container, extending into an internal compartment configured to store a volume of liquid, the internal compartment bounded by the internal sidewall surface and the internal base surface;
positioning the container within a vacuum chamber with a portion of the external base surface or a portion of the external sidewall surface in contact with a first electrode, wherein the first electrode is grounded and is at a ground potential;
inserting a second electrode into the internal compartment such that the second electrode is free of contact from the internal sidewall surface and the internal base surface, wherein the second electrode is configured to transmit a chemical vapor deposition precursor gas into the internal compartment of the container, wherein the second electrode includes a heating element that is configured to heat the internal sidewall surface prior to injection of the chemical vapor deposition precursor gas;
evacuating a mass of gas from the vacuum chamber;
transmitting a mass of the chemical vapor deposition precursor gas into the internal compartment of the container; and
energizing the first and second electrodes to create a plasma and form a deposited layer on the internal sidewall surface.
