ABSTRACT:
MIM capacitors and thin film resistors are fabricated with at least one less lithographic step than the prior art methods. The process step reduction is realized by using semi-transparent metallic electrodes, fabricated with a two-mask process, which provides for direct alignment, and eliminates the need for alignment trenches in an additional layer.
