  • Patent number: 7018720
    Abstract: The layer sequence built on a substrate in thin-film technology includes an electrically conductive sputtered layer and an electrically conductive reinforcing layer for reinforcing or strengthening the sputtered layer, which is applied on the sputtered layer by a method other than sputtering. In order to remove conducting material from the conductive layers with the aid of a laser for the purposes of adjustment while producing as little contaminating material as possible, the electrically conductive reinforcing layer has a reduced thickness or is completely eliminated in regions of the electrically conductive layers to be adjusted than in other regions outside of the regions to be adjusted.
