Fabricating an electrical metal fuse

摘要

A method for forming an electrical metal fuse for use with a semiconductor integrated circuit device. At least two varying trench metal depths may be formed on a substrate to configure the electrical metal fuse thereon. Additionally, at least two different widths of single metal lines, may be configured on the substrate. As a result of the two different trench depths and two different widths of metal formed thereon to create the electrical metal fuse, increases in current density gradients and thermal gradients thereof can be generated. The trench metal depths and width of metal are formed from copper. The electrical metal fuse generally comprises a current density ratio greater than 10 to 1.
