Abstract:
There is provided a semiconductor device having resistance elements small in temperature dependence of the resistance value. The semiconductor device has two metal resistance element layers (Rm1,Rm2). Each metal resistance element layer includes a resistance film layer (Rm12,Rm11). One of the metal resistance film layers is of titanium nitride and the other one of tantalum nitride. The resistance value of titanium nitride has a positive temperature coefficient. Whereas, the resistance value of tantalum nitride has a negative temperature coefficient. A contact plug (P2) electrically couples the metal resistance film layers with each other. Therefore, the temperature coefficient of the titanium nitride and the temperature coefficient of the tantalum nitride cancel each other.
Abstract:
An integrated circuit resistor is provided that comprises a mesa (14) between electrical contacts (16) and (18). The electrical resistance between electrical contacts (16) and (18) is selectively increased through the formation of recesses (20) and (22) in the mesa (14). The size of recesses (20) and (22) can be used to tune the value of the electrical resistance between contacts (16) and (18).
Abstract:
The present invention provides a poly-resistor with an improved linearity. Majority charge carrier wells are provided under the poly- strips and are biased in such way that the non-linearity of the resistor is reduced. Further, when such poly-resistors are used in amplifier circuits, the gain of the amplifier remains constant against the poly- depletion effect.
Abstract:
A method for forming a self-aligned nanotube contact structure by selectively depositing metal over nanotubes or through a nanotube network onto an interconnect layer formed below is provided. An interconnect layer is formed over a first layer of a microelectronics device. A second layer of the microelectronics device is then formed over the interconnect layer and vias are patterned through the second layer. The vias are filled with metal and a nanotube layer is formed over the vias such that openings remain in the nanotube layer. Self-aligned electrodes are formed in the openings by selective electroless plating or chemical vapor deposition such that the electrodes substantially fill only the openings in the nanotube layer that substantially reside over the metal in the vias. The resulting self-aligned nanotube contact structure envelops individual nanotubes in the region and provides low contact resistance.
