Disclosed herein is a method of fabricating a semiconductor device having a metal fuse. The method includes forming a plate electrode on a semiconductor substrate, forming an interlayer insulating layer on the plate electrode, forming a barrier metal layer containing either silicon or aluminum, a first metal layer and an antireflection layer containing either silicon or aluminum sequentially from bottom to top on the interlayer insulating layer.

The method also includes forming a fuse with the same material and structure as those of the first metal interconnection while forming the first metal interconnection. The method further includes forming an inter-metal dielectric layer on the first metal interconnection and the fuse, forming a second metal interconnection on the inter-metal dielectric layer, forming a passivation layer on the second metal interconnection, and forming a fuse box in the passivation layer.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a capacitor of a semiconductor element including: forming a bottom electrode of the capacitor on a semiconductor substrate; performing rapid thermal nitrification (RTN) on the upper surface of the bottom electrode; performing a thermal process on the obtained structure having the bottom electrode in a furnace under a nitride atmosphere to eliminate stress generated by the RTN; forming Al2O3 and HfO2 dielectric films on the nitrified bottom electrode; and forming a plate electrode of the capacitor on the Al2O3 and HfO2 dielectric films. The thermal process is performed after the RTN performed on the surface of the bottom electrode, so that stress, generated from the RTN, is alleviated, thereby allowing the capacitor to obtain a high capacitance and lowering leakage current.

The contact area between the PN diode and the semiconductor substrate is increased so that interfacial resistance is reduced.
