Abstract
A feature is inscribed in a major surface of a microelectronic workpiece having a material property expressed as a reference coefficient value. The feature includes a first material having a first coefficient value for the material property and a second material having a second coefficient value for the material property. The first coefficient value is different from the reference coefficient value different from the first coefficient value and the second coefficient value is different from the first coefficient value. The first and second materials behave as an aggregate having an aggregate coefficient value for the material property between the first coefficient value and the reference coefficient value.
