  • Integrated inductor in semiconductor manufacturing
    Publication number: 20040212038
    Abstract: An integrated inductor is formed on an integrated circuit or other substrate. The inductor is formed of a stack of almost totally enclosed rings of conductive material in which each ring has a single gap. Vias connect adjacent rings on opposite sides of their gaps so as to form a coil shaped structure. The inductor has applications in filtering, in an oscillator, in an antenna, combined with an active detection circuit, combined with an electron source, in a microelectromechanical systems or MEMS, or the like. The inductor may be formed in a vertical orientation or in a horizontal orientation. Chemical mechanical polishing may be used for planarizing layers.
    Type: Application
