    摘要: An electrically programmable fuse includes an anode, a cathode, and a fuse link conductively connecting the cathode with the anode, which is programmable by applying a programming current. The anode and the fuse link each include a polysilicon layer and a silicide layer formed on the polysilicon layer, and the cathode includes the polysilicon layer and a partial silicide layer formed on a predetermined portion of the polysilicon layer of the cathode located adjacent to a cathode junction where the cathode and the fuse link meet.

    摘要: Semiconductor wiring structures including a dielectric layer having a metal wiring line therein, a via extending downwardly from the metal wiring line, a metal cap layer over the metal wiring line, and a local dielectric cap positioned within a portion of the metal cap layer and in contact with the metal wiring line and a related method are disclosed. The local dielectric cap represents an intentionally created weak point in the metal wiring line of a dual-damascene interconnect, which induces electromigration (EM) voiding in the line, rather than at the bottom of a via extending downwardly from the metal wiring line. Since the critical void size in line fails, especially with metal cap layer (liner) redundancy, is much larger than that in via fails, the EM lifetime can be significantly increased.
