Abstract
A precision resistor of NiCr or SiCr has a refractive and thermal barrier layer beneath the resistor. The refractive barrier is a layer of refractory metal. The refractory metal prevents the incident laser beam of a laser trimmer penetrating lower layers of the device. Unwanted reflections and refractions caused by lower layers are avoided. The reflective barrier layer is a material selected from the group consisting of tungsten, titanium, molybdenum, TiSi,, CoSi,, MoSi,, TaSi,and WSi,.
