摘要:
Structures of electronic fuses (e-fuse) are provided. An un-programmed e-fuse includes a via of a first conductive material having a bottom and sidewalls with a portion of the sidewalls being covered by a conductive liner and the bottom of the via being formed on top of a dielectric layer, and a first and a second conductive path of a second conductive material formed on top of the dielectric layer with the first and second conductive paths being conductively connected through, and only through, the via at the sidewalls. A programmed e-fuse includes a via; a first conductive path at a first side of the via and being separated from sidewalls of the via by a void; and a second conductive path at a second different side of the via and being in conductive contact with the via through sidewalls of the via.

摘要:
The disclosure relates generally to integrated circuit (IC) chip fabrication, and more particularly, to an e-fuse device including an opening, a first via and a second via in an interlayer dielectric, wherein the opening, the first via and the second via are connected to an interconnect below the interlayer dielectric; a dielectric layer that encloses the first via and the second via; and a metal layer over the dielectric layer, wherein the metal layer fills the opening with a metal, and wherein the first via and the second via are substantially empty to allow for electromigration of the interconnect during re-programming of the e-fuse device.
摘要:
An electrically reprogrammable fuse comprising an interconnect disposed in a dielectric material, a sensing wire disposed at a first end of the interconnect, a first programming wire disposed at a second end of the interconnect, and a second programming wire disposed at a second end of the interconnect, wherein the fuse is operative to form a surface void at the interface between the interconnect and the sensing wire when a first directional electron current is applied from the first programming wire through the interconnect to the second programming wire, and wherein, the fuse is further operative to heal the surface void between the interconnect and the sensing wire when a second directional electron current is applied from the second programming wire through the interconnect to the first programming wire.
摘要:
A method for fabricating an interconnect function array includes forming a first plurality of conductive lines on a substrate, forming an insulator layer over the first plurality of conductive lines and the substrate, removing portions of the insulator layer to define cavities in the insulator layer that expose portions of the substrate and the first plurality of conductive lines, wherein the removal of the portions of the insulator layer results in a substantially random arrangement of cavities exposing portions of the substrate and the first plurality of conductive lines, depositing a conductive material in the cavities, and forming a second plurality of conductive lines on portions of the conductive material in the cavities and the insulator layer.
摘要:
A stack of a second photoresist having a second photosensitivity and a first photoresist having a first photosensitivity, which is greater than second photosensitivity, is formed on a substrate. A first pattern is formed in the first photoresist by a first exposure and a first development, while the second photoresist underneath remains intact. A second pattern comprising an array of lines is formed in the second photoresist. An exposed portion of the second photoresist underneath a remaining portion of the first photoresist forms a narrow portion of a line pattern, while an exposed portion of the second photoresist outside the area of the remaining portions of the photoresist forms a wide portion of the line pattern. Each wide portion of the line pattern forms a bulge in the second pattern, which increases overlay tolerance between the second pattern and the pattern of conductive vias.
