Electrically programmable fuses for an integrated circuit and design structures thereof are presented, wherein the electrically programmable fuse has a first terminal portion and a second terminal portion interconnected by a fuse element. The first terminal portion and the second terminal portion reside over a first support and a second support, respectively, with the first support and the second support being spaced apart, and the fuse element bridging the distance between the first terminal portion over the first support and the second terminal portion over the second support. The fuse, first support and second support define a π-shaped structure in elevational cross-section through the fuse element. The first terminal portion, second terminal portion and fuse element are coplanar, with the fuse element residing above a void. The design structure for the fuse is embodied in a machine-readable medium for designing, manufacturing or testing a design of the fuse.

A thin semiconductor layer is formed and patterned on a semiconductor substrate to form a thin semiconductor fuselink on shallow trench isolation and between an anode semiconductor region and a cathode semiconductor region. During metallization, the semiconductor fuselink is converted to a thin metal semiconductor alloy fuselink as all of the semiconductor material in the semiconductor fuselink reacts with a metal to form a metal semiconductor alloy. The inventive electrical fuse comprises the thin metal semiconductor alloy fuselink, a metal semiconductor alloy anode, and a metal semiconductor alloy cathode. The thin metal semiconductor alloy fuselink has a smaller cross-sectional area compared with prior art electrical fuses. Current density within the fuselink and the divergence of current at the interface between the fuselink and the cathode or anode comparable to prior art electrical fuses are obtained with less programming current than prior art electrical fuses.

In one embodiment, a mandrel and an outer dummy spacer may be employed to form a first conductivity type region. The mandrel is removed to form a recessed region wherein a second conductivity type region is formed. In another embodiment, a mandrel is removed from within shallow trench isolation to form a recessed region, in which an inner dummy spacer is formed. A first conductivity type region and a second conductivity region are formed within the remainder of the recessed region. An anneal is performed so that the first conductivity type region and the second conductivity type region abut each other by diffusion. A gate electrode is formed in self-alignment to the p-n junction between the first and second conductivity regions. The p-n junction controlled by the gate electrode, which may be sublithographic, constitutes an inventive tunneling effect transistor.

Forming a shallow trench capacitor in conjunction with an FET by forming a plurality of STI trenches; for the FET, implanting a first cell well having a first polarity between a first and a second of the STI trenches; for the capacitor, implanting a second cell well having a second polarity in an area of a third of the STI trenches; removing dielectric material from the third STI trench; forming a gate stack having a first portion located between the first and the second of the STI trenches and a second portion located over and extending into the third trench; and performing a source/drain implant of the same polarity as the second cell well, thereby forming a FET in the first cell well, and a capacitor in the second cell well. The second polarity may be opposite from the first polarity. An additional implant may reduce ESR in the second cell well.

Trench anti-fuse structures, design structures embodied in a machine readable medium for designing, manufacturing, or testing a programmable integrated circuit. The anti-fuse structure includes a trench having a plurality of sidewalls that extend into a substrate, a doped region in the semiconductor material of the substrate proximate to the sidewalls of the trench, a conductive plug in the trench, and a dielectric layer on the sidewalls of the trench. The dielectric layer is disposed between the conductive plug and the doped region. The dielectric layer is configured so that a programming voltage applied between the doped region and the conductive plug causes a breakdown of the dielectric layer within a region of the trench. The trench sidewalls are arranged with a cross-sectional geometrical shape that is independent of position between a bottom wall of the deep trench and a top surface of the substrate.

A deep trench is formed in a semiconductor substrate and a pad layer thereupon, and filled with a dummy node dielectric and a dummy trench fill. A shallow trench isolation structure is formed in the semiconductor substrate. A dummy gate structure is formed in a device region after removal of the pad layer. A first dielectric layer is formed over the dummy gate structure and a protruding portion of the dummy trench fill and then planarized. The dummy structures are removed. The deep trench and a cavity formed by removal of the dummy gate structure are filled with a high dielectric constant material layer and a metallic layer, which form a high-k node dielectric and a metallic inner electrode of a deep trench capacitor in the deep trench and a high-k gate dielectric and a metal gate in the device region.
