    摘要: A layer of semiconductor material is patterned to form a cathode semiconductor portion, a fuselink semiconductor portion, and an anode semiconductor portion. A first metal layer is deposited on the patterned semiconductor material layer. A dielectric material layer is deposited and lithographically patterned to cover a middle portion of the fuselink, followed by a deposition of a second metal layer. A thin metal semiconductor alloy is formed in the middle of the fuselink and thick metal semiconductor alloy alloys are formed abutting the thin metal semiconductor alloy alloy. The resulting inventive electrical fuse has interfaces at which a thinner metal semiconductor alloy abuts a thicker metal semiconductor alloy in the fuselink. The divergence of electrical current is enhanced at the interfaces due to a sudden change of a cross-sectional area available for current conduction.

    摘要: A metal layer is deposited on the patterned semiconductor material layer containing a cathode semiconductor portion, a fuselink semiconductor portion, and an anode semiconductor portion. The metal layer may be patterned so that a middle portion of the fuselink semiconductor portion has a thin metal layer, which upon annealing produces a thinner metal semiconductor alloy portion than surrounding metal semiconductor alloy portion on the fuselink semiconductor portion. Alternatively, a middle portion of the metal semiconductor alloy having a uniform thickness throughout the fuselink may be lithographically patterned and etched to form a thin metal semiconductor alloy portion in the middle of the fuselink, while thick metal semiconductor alloy portions are formed on the end portions of the fuselink. The resulting inventive electrical fuse has interfaces at which a thinner metal semiconductor alloy abuts a thicker metal semiconductor alloy in the fuselink to enhance the divergence of electrical current.

    摘要: A dielectric material layer is formed on a metal gate layer for a metal gate electrode, and then lithographically patterned to form a dielectric material portion, followed by formation of a polycrystalline semiconductor layer thereupon. A semiconductor device employing a metal gate electrode is formed in a region of the semiconductor substrate containing a vertically abutting stack of the metal gate layer and the polycrystalline semiconductor layer. A material stack in the shape of an electrical fuse is formed in another region of the semiconductor substrate containing a vertical stack of the metal gate layer, the dielectric material portion, and the polycrystalline semiconductor layer. After metallization of the polycrystalline semiconductor layer, an electrical fuse containing a polycrystalline semiconductor portion and a metal semiconductor alloy portion is formed over the dielectric material portion that separates the electrical fuse from the metal gate layer.

    摘要: A fuse structure comprises a cavity interposed between a substrate and a fuse material layer. The cavity is not formed at a sidewall of the fuse material layer, or at a surface of the fuse material layer opposite the substrate. A void may be formed interposed between the substrate and the fuse material layer while using a self-aligned etching method, when the fuse material layer comprises lobed ends and a narrower middle region. The void is separated by a pair of sacrificial layer pedestals that support the fuse material layer. The void is encapsulated to form the cavity by using an encapsulating dielectric layer. Alternatively, a block mask may be used when forming the void interposed between the substrate and the fuse material layer.

    摘要: The present invention provides structures for antifuses that utilize electromigration for programming. By providing a portion of antifuse link with high resistance without conducting material and then by inducing electromigration of the conducting material into the antifuse link, the resistance of the antifuse structure is changed. By providing a terminal on the antifuse link, the change in the electrical properties of the antifuse link is detected and sensed. Also disclosed are an integrated antifuse with a built-in sensing device and a two dimensional array of integrated antifuses that can share programming transistors and sensing circuitry.
