Abstract
A new class of electronic systems, wherein microelectronic semiconductor integrated circuit devices are integrated on a common substrate with molecular electronic devices.
Claims1
An integrated circuit structure, comprising:
- a plurality of transistors;
- a plurality of thin-film conductor interconnects, interconnected to form electronic circuits in a predetermined electrical configuration;
- a plurality of pairs of contact pads, connected to said thin-film conductor interconnects, each adjacent pair of contact pads including a first pad of a first conductive material and a second pad of a second conductive material, and being electrically connected only by a conductive oligomer of a precisely predetermined number of units.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
