Temperature-independent resistor for microelectronic circuits

Heat treating insulating crystals in gaseous hydrogen atmosphere produce resistive device which is temperature-independent from 77 to 295 degrees K. Increasing the concentration of hydrogen within the crystal yields semiconductor, hybrid, and metallic conduction characteristics which are combined with a depletion layer at the surface.

Ohmic diode

Process produces linearly responding surface barrier diodes. Hydrogen-fired, conducting strontium titanate crystals provide linear characteristics. The process uses space charge potentials and depletion layer phenomena to achieve conduction and insulation.
