No you cannot ,since the Au is parallel to the Cr ,and therefore the R is lower than the the 2 layers combined like 2 resistors in parallel Dov www.elume.com -----Original Message----- From: Mojgan Daneshmand [mailto:mojgan@lenz.uwaterloo.ca] Subject: [mems-talk] Cr as resistor Hello everyone, I need to deposit a resistive layer for an RF circuit. My main circuit is from gold and we use Cr as adhesive layer. I was wondering if I can use this Cr layer as resistive layer for biasing the RF circuit?? I looked on the web, it seems no one is using Cr as resistors and everyone is using it in the form of a mixture. I was wondering if any one has any information in this regard that can help me??
