Appeal No. 2001-1545
Application No. 09/199,666
teachings of Shiozawa to teach or suggest the use of two dielectric layers, we will not
sustain the rejection of independent claim 34. Since independent claims 1 and 33
contain similar limitations directed to the use of two gate dielectric layers, we will
similarly not sustain the rejections of these claims and their dependent claims 2-7, 9, 10
and 26-31.
CONCLUSION
To summarize, the decision of the examiner to reject claims 1-7, 9, 10, and 26-
34 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.
