Appeal No. 2000-2060
Application 08/568,209
Since claims 2-6, 8-12, 14, 16-17, 19-20 and 22 are
dependent on independent claims 1, 13 and 18, we also cannot
sustain the art rejections of these claims.
In conclusion, we find the Hess reference in combination
with Tango and Hawkins fail to disclose, teach or suggest a
multi-functional layer having a first portion that functions as a
channel of the transistor as recited in claim 1, an uninterrupted
layer of conductive material inter-connected between and forming
at least a part of the transistor and the resistor and wherein
preselected portions of the uninterrupted layer of conductive
material are doped at different levels such that a first portion
of the layer functions as a channel of the transistor as recited
in claim 13, or the step of inter-connecting the transistor with
an uninterrupted layer of conductive material so that a first
portion of the layer functions as a channel of the transistor as
