    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to an integrated thin film resistor with a metal-insulator-metal capacitor and methods of manufacture. The structure includes: a first buffer contact on a substrate; a second buffer contact on the substrate, the second buffer contact being on a same wiring level as the first buffer contact; a resistive film contacting the first buffer contact and the second buffer contact, the resistive film extending on the substrate between the first buffer contact and the second buffer contact; and electrical contacts landing on both the first buffer contact and the second buffer contact, but not directly contacting with the resistive film.

    Abstract: Device and method for forming a device are disclosed. A substrate which is prepared with a dielectric layer having a top metal level of the device is provided. The top metal level includes top level conductive lines. A top dielectric layer which includes top via openings in communication with the top level conductive lines is formed over the top metal level. A patterned top conductive layer is formed on the top dielectric layer. The patterned top conductive layer includes a top via in the top via opening and a top conductive line. A first passivation sub-layer is formed to line the patterned conductive layer and exposed top dielectric layer. A plasma treatment is performed on the surface of the first passivation sub-layer to form a nitrided layer. A second passivation sub-layer is formed to line the nitrided layer. The plasma treatment improves the passivation integrity of the passivation stack.

    Abstract: Device and a method of forming a device are presented. The method includes providing a substrate prepared with isolation regions. The substrate includes first, second and third regions. The first region includes a memory region, the second region includes a high voltage (HV) region and the third region includes a logic region. An additional dielectric layer covering the substrate and the isolation regions is formed. A first select region is selectively processed while protecting first non-select regions. The first select region is one of the first, second and third device regions. A first gate dielectric is formed on the select region. Top substrate active area and isolation regions of the first non-select regions are not exposed during processing of the first select region and forming the first gate dielectric.
