    Abstract: Anti-reflective compositions and methods of using those compositions with low dielectric constant materials are provided. In one embodiment, the compositions include polymers comprising recurring monomers having unreacted epoxide groups. In another embodiment, the polymers further comprise recurring monomers comprising epoxide rings reacted with a light attenuating compound so as to open the ring. The compositions can be applied to dielectric layers so as to minimize or prevent reflection during the dual damascene process while simultaneously blocking via or photoresist poisoning which commonly occurs when organic anti-reflective coatings are applied to low dielectric constant layers.

    Abstract: An improved etch behavior is promoted to generate vertical sidewalls for fuse links that will promote reliable and repeatable laser cutting of the fuse links. In one embodiment, dummy structures are added adjacent to fuse links in order to obtain the vertical sidewalls for reliable fuse deletion. The dummy structures form no part of the fuse or circuit structure but, because of the proximity of the dummy structures to the fuse links, vertical sidewalls are promoted in a reactive ion etch which is used to form the fuse array. In another embodiment, the vertical sidewalls of the fuse links are achieved in a damascene process in which grooves are formed in an oxide layer and filled with a metal. These grooves correspond to the fuse links and alternating dummy structures. Once filled, the surface is planarized using a chemical-mechanical process. The dummy structures provide reinforcement for the metallization (metal and dielectric film), maintaining the integrity of the metallization. In both embodiments, the vertical sidewalls and constant height of the resulting fuse links promote reliable laser cutting.
