The fuse includes: a dielectric layer on a semiconductor substrate; a cathode stack on the dielectric layer, a sidewall of the cathode stack extending from a top surface of the cathode stack to a top surface of the dielectric layer; a continuous polysilicon layer comprising a cathode region, an anode region, a link region between the cathode and anode regions and a transition region between the cathode region and the link region, the transition region proximate to the sidewall of the cathode stack, the cathode region on a top surface of the cathode stack, the link region on a top surface of the dielectric layer, both a first thickness of the cathode region and a second thickness of the link region greater than a third thickness of the transition region; and a metal silicide layer on a top surface of the polysilicon layer.
摘要:
An electrical fuse and a first dielectric layer thereupon are formed on a semiconductor substrate. Self-assembling block copolymers containing two or more different polymeric block components are applied into a recessed region surrounded by a dielectric template layer. The self-assembling block copolymers are then annealed to form a pattern of multiple circles having a sublithographic diameter. The pattern of multiple circles is transferred into the first dielectric layer by a reactive ion etch, wherein the portion of the first dielectric layer above the fuselink has a honeycomb pattern comprising multiple circular cylindrical holes. A second dielectric layer is formed over the circular cylindrical holes by a non-conformal chemical vapor deposition and sublithographic cavities are formed on the fuselink. The sublithographic cavities provide enhanced thermal insulation relative to dielectric materials to the fuselink so that the electrical fuse may be programmed with less programming current.

An e-fuse structure and method has an anode; a fuse link (a first end of the fuse link is connected to the anode); a cathode (a second end of the fuse link opposite the first end is connected to the cathode); and a silicide layer on the fuse link. The silicide layer has a first silicide region adjacent the anode and a second silicide region adjacent the cathode. The second silicide region comprises an impurity not contained within the first silicide region. Further, the first silicide region is thinner than the second silicide region.

Example embodiments relate to an electrical device, for example, to an electrical fuse device that includes a fuse link for linking a cathode and anode. An electrical device may include a cathode, an anode, and a fuse link. The fuse link may link the cathode and the anode. The fuse link may include a multi-metal layer structure. The fuse link may include a first metal layer including a first resistance, and a second metal layer stacked on the first metal layer and including a second resistance. The first resistance may be different from the second resistance. The fuse link may include a weak point as a region at which electrical blowing is performed easier than other regions of the fuse link.

A DRAM cell in a substrate has a deep trench (DT) extending from a surface of the substrate into the substrate, a word line (WL) formed on the surface of the substrate adjacent the deep trench, and oxide (TTO) disposed in a top portion of the trench and extending beyond the trench in the direction of the word line. In this manner, when silicided, there is oxide rather than silicon on the surface of the substrate in a gap between the word line (WL) and a passing word line (PWL) disposed above the deep trench.
摘要:
A metal layer and a semiconductor layer are sequentially deposited on a substrate. The semiconductor layer and the metal layer are lithographically patterned to form a stack of a semiconductor portion and a metal gate portion, which is preferably performed concurrently with formation of at least one metal gate stack. In one embodiment, the size of the semiconductor portion is reduced and a metal semiconductor alloy portion is formed on the semiconductor portion by metallization. In a first electrical antifuse formed thereby, the metal semiconductor alloy portion may be electromigrated to form a short between the metal semiconductor alloy portion and the metal gate portion. In another embodiment, two disjoined metal semiconductor alloy portions are formed on the semiconductor portion. In a second electrical antifuse formed thereby, the metal semiconductor alloy portion may be electromigrated to form a short between the two previously disjoined metal semiconductor alloy portions.
