Abstract
Method for fabrication of quasi-monolithic microwave integrated circuits in which metals, oxides, and processes are selected to enable fabrication of the circuits by first producing many layers of metals and oxides in situ without removing the circuit from its environmental chamber. This reduces inclusion of contaminating chemical films and particles between the desired layers. Circuit elements are then defined by processing of the layers by photolithography and other processes from the top of the circuit downward. Lumped and distributed capacitors, resistors, inductors, transmission lines, and contacts for active devices are monolithically defined, with a reduced number of process steps.
