ABSTRACT:
A method for fabricating a semiconductor with a fuse includes providing a substrate, forming an insulation layer over the substrate, forming a polysilicon hard mask over the insulation layer, forming a first mask pattern to form a fuse over the polysilicon hard mask, and removing the polysilicon hard mask exposed by the first mask pattern to form a portion of the polysilicon hard mask into a polysilicon fuse.
