Patents by Inventor Jeffrey R. Amadon

Jeffrey R. Amadon has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Method of fabrication of thin film resistor with 0 TCR
    Patent number: 7012499
    Abstract: A thin film resistor that has a substantially zero TCR is provided as well as a method for fabricating the same. The thin film resistor includes at least two resistor materials located over one another. Each resistor material has a different temperature coefficient of resistivity such that the effective temperature coefficient of resistivity of the thin film resistor is substantially 0 ppm/° C. The thin film resistor may be integrated into a interconnect structure or it may be integrated with a metal-insulator-metal capacitor (MIMCAP).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 2, 2003
    Date of Patent: March 14, 2006
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
    Inventors: Jeffrey R. Amadon, Anil K. Chinthakindi, Kenneth J. Stein, Kwong H. Wong
