CMOS COMPATIBLE FUSE OR RESISTOR USING SELF-ALIGNED CONTACTS
A semiconductor device includes dummy gate structures formed on a dielectric layer over a substrate and forming a gap therebetween. A trench silicide structure is formed in the gap on the dielectric layer and extends longitudinally beyond the gap on end portions. The trench silicide structure forms a resistive element. Self-aligned contacts are formed through an interlevel dielectric layer and land on the trench silicide structure beyond the gap on the end portions.
Faceted structure formed by self-limiting etch
An eFuse device on a substrate is formed on a substrate used for an integrated circuit. A semiconductor structure is created from a semiconductor layer deposited over the substrate. A mask layer is patterned over the semiconductor structure such that a first region of the semiconductor structure is exposed and a second region of the semiconductor structure is protected by the mask layer. Next, a self-limiting etch is performed on the exposed areas in the first region of the semiconductor structure, producing a first faceted region of the semiconductor structure in the first region. The semiconductor in the first faceted region has a minimum, nonzero thickness at a point where two semiconductor facet planes meet which is thinner than a thickness of semiconductor in the second region of the semiconductor structure is protected by the mask layer. The first faceted region is used as a link structure in the eFuse device.
