Methods of forming thin film resistor structures utilizing interconnect liner materials

Abstract:

Methods/structures of forming thin film resistors using interconnect liner materials are described. Those methods/structures may include forming a first liner in a first trench, wherein the first trench is disposed in a dielectric layer that is disposed on a substrate. Forming a second liner in a second trench, wherein the second trench is adjacent the first trench, forming an interconnect material on the first liner in the first trench, adjusting a resistance value of the second liner, forming a first contact structure on a top surface of the interconnect material, and forming a second contact structure on the second liner.
