Abstract

Electrical, mechanical, computing, and/or other devices that include components formed of extremely low resistance (ELR) materials, including, but not limited to, modified ELR materials, layered ELR materials, and new ELR materials, are described.

Claims (15)

1 - 6 . (canceled)

7 . An electrical device, comprising:

a semiconductor layer having a length and a thickness;

a first interconnect layer disposed on top of the semiconductor layer;

a via layer disposed on top of the first interconnect layer; and

a second interconnect layer disposed on top of the via layer, wherein the via layer electrically connects the first interconnect layer to the second interconnect layer,

wherein the first interconnect layer, the second interconnect layer, and the via layer are formed of a modified extremely low resistance (ELR) material,

wherein the modified ELR material comprises:

a layer of a first ELR material, the first ELR material having its a-axis oriented in the direction of the length of the semiconductor layer and its c-axis oriented in the direction of the thickness of the semiconductor layer, and

a layer of a second ELR material, immediately adjacent to and on top of the layer of the first ELR material, the second ELR material also having its a-axis oriented in the direction of the length of the semiconductor layer and its c-axis oriented in the direction of the thickness of the semiconductor layer,

wherein the first ELR material and the second ELR material are different from one another.

8 . The electrical device of claim 7 , wherein the modified ELR material has improved operating characteristics over those of the first ELR material and the second ELR material.

9 . The electrical device of claim 7 , wherein the first ELR material and the second ELR material are different forms of the same ELR material.

10 . The electrical device of claim 9 , wherein the first ELR material comprises the same ELR material with a first stoichiometry and the second ELR material comprises the same ELR material with a second stoichiometry different from the first stoichiometry.

11 . The electrical device of claim 7 , wherein the first ELR material comprises YBCO and the second ELR material comprises NBCO.
