Abstract
A semiconductor structure includes a substrate and a resistor provided over the substrate. The resistor includes a first material layer, a second material layer, a first contact structure and a second contact structure. The first material layer includes at least one of a metal and a metal compound. The second material layer includes a semiconductor material. The second material layer is provided over the first material layer and includes a first sub-layer and a second sub-layer. The second sub-layer is provided over the first sub-layer. The first sub-layer and the second sub-layer are differently doped. Each of the first contact structure and the second contact structure provides an electrical connection to the second sub-layer of the second material layer.
