Abstract
Thin-film transistors and MIM capacitors in exclusion zones are described. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes a semiconductor substrate having a zone with metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) transistors therein, and having a zone that excludes MOS transistors. A back-end-of-line (BEOL) structure is above the semiconductor substrate. A thin-film transistor (TFT) and/or a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor is in the BEOL structure. The TFT and/or MIM capacitor is vertically over the zone that excludes MOS transistors.
