Abstract
The amount of laser energy absorbed by a dielectric material during laser fuse blow is increased by changing the angle at which the laser is transmitted. An increased angle of incidence will result in increased energy absorption at the top and edge of the device. This technique may eliminate the need for second pass fuse blow.
