摘要： Provided are a fuse structure and a method for manufacturing the fuse structure. In one example, the method includes providing a multilayer interconnect structure (MLI) over a semiconductor substrate. The MLI includes multiple fuse connection and bonding connection features. A passivation layer is formed over the MLI and patterned to form openings, with each opening being aligned with one of the fuse connection or bonding connection features. A conductive layer is formed on the passivation layer and in the openings. The conductive layer is patterned to form bonding features and fuse structures. Each bonding feature is in contact with one of the bonding connection features, and each fuse structure is in contact with two of the fuse connection features. A cap dielectric layer is formed over the fuse structures and patterned to expose at least one of the bonding features while leaving the fuse structures covered.

摘要： A semiconductor device having a core device with a high-k gate dielectric and an I/O device with a silicon dioxide or other non-high-k gate dielectric, and a method of fabricating such a device. A core well and an I/O well are created in a semiconductor substrate and separated by an isolation structure. An I/O device is formed over the I/O well and has a silicon dioxide or a low-k gate dielectric. A resistor may be formed on an isolation structure adjacent to the core well. A core-well device such as a transistor is formed over the core well, and has a high-k gate dielectric. In some embodiments, a p-type I/O well and an n-type I/O well are created. In a preferred embodiment, the I/O device or devices are formed prior to forming the core device and protected with a sacrificial layer until the core device is fabricated.
