发明名称 MOS transistor operated as OTP cell with gate dielectric operating as an e-fuse element
摘要 A process and device are provided for a high-k gate-dielectric operating as a built-in e-fuse. Embodiments include: providing first and second active regions of a transistor, separated by a gate region of the transistor, on a substrate; forming an interfacial layer on the gate region; minimizing the interfacial layer; forming a high-k gate dielectric layer on the interfacial layer to operate as an e-fuse element, the high-k gate dielectric layer and interfacial layer having a combined breakdown voltage less than three times a circuit operating voltage associated with the transistor; and forming a metal gate on the high-k gate dielectric layer.
