Abstract

The invention relates to a process for fabricating electronic components incorporating an inductive microcomponent placed on top of a substrate. Such a component comprises: a layer (10) of material having a low relative permittivity, lying on the top face of the substrate (1); a number of metal turns (30-31) defined on top of the layer (10) of material having a low relative permittivity; and a copper diffusion barrier layer (15) interposed between the metal turns (30-31) and the layer of material having a low relative permittivity.
