Abstract

Integrated circuit structure having an active microwave component and at least one passive component. A high-resistance silicon substrate (11) comprises an active microwave component (16) and at least two metallization planes (12, 14), which are insulated from one another by an insulation layer (13). A passive component surrounded by a grounded line (122) in one of the metallization planes (12) is provided, which comprises a first metal structure (121), which is realized in the first metallization plane (12), and a second metal structure (141), which is realized in the other metallization plane (14). The passive component is designed, in particular, as a capacitor, coil or resonator which comprises a capacitor and a coil.
