ABSTRACT:
A silicided polysilicon based fuse device that is programmable by optical and electrical energy in the polysilicon layer without damage to nearby structures, comprising:a Si substrate;an insulating layer disposed on the substrate; anda fuse device section comprising poly-Si/a silicide/ and a barrier layer, the fuse device section forming an electrical discontinuity in the poly Si layer in response to an electrical pulse or an optical pulse applied to it.
