Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the control of thickness of an insulator layer on a fuse structure, by a method wherein a dielectric structure is positioned on a conduction level, and electric connection is performed at a selected position of the conduction level through the dielectric structure. SOLUTION: On a semiconductor substrate 10 an electric conduction level 1 is formed by using conductive material selected out of aluminum, copper, aluminum copper alloy, and doped polysilicon having metal type conductivity. A dielectric etching stop material layer 2 is stuck on the upper surface of the electric conduction level 1. Electric connection is performed to a selected position of the electric conduction level 1 through the dielectric etching stop material layer 2, and a conductive fuse 21 is constituted. As a result control of the thickness of an insulator layer on the fuse structure containing a self-aligned isolation cap can be improved.

Abstract: A conductive structure in an integrated circuit (12), and a method of forming the structure, is provided that includes a polysilicon layer (30), a thin layer containing titanium over the polysilicon, a tungsten nitride layer (34) over the titanium-containing layer and a tungsten layer over the tungsten nitride layer. The structure also includes a silicon nitride interfacial region (38) between the polysilicon layer and the titanium-containing layer. The structure withstands high-temperature processing without substantial formation of metal silicides in the polysilicon layer (30) and the tungsten layer (32), and provides low interface resistance between the tungsten layer and the polysilicon layer.
