Abstract

A passive device structure includes an unpatterned metal gate layer formed in a passive device region of a semiconductor device; an insulator layer formed upon the unpatterned metal gate layer; a semiconductor layer formed upon the insulator layer; and one or more metal contact regions formed in the semiconductor layer; wherein the insulator layer prevents the metal gate layer as serving as a leakage current path for current flowing through a passive device defined by the semiconductor layer and the one or more metal contact regions.
