摘要: A back end of the line (BEOL) fuse structure having a stack vias. The stacking vias leads to high aspect ratios making liner and seed coverage inside poorer. weakness layers higher probability electromigration (EM) failure. addresses failures due poor coverage. Design features permit determining where occur, extent damaged region after programming preventing further propagation dielectric region.
