Abstract

An ion repulsion structure for a fuse window is provided. The ion repulsion structure includes multi-level metallic layers and a P-type silicon semiconductor substrate having a plurality of wells. The P-type silicon semiconductor substrate includes an N-type well, a P-type well formed in the N-type well and a plurality of P+ type diffusion regions formed in the P-type well. A fuse element is formed on the P-type silicon semiconductor substrate. A fuse window layer is formed over the fuse element. Multi-level metallic layers surrounding the fuse window are formed. A plurality of contact plugs is electrically connected between the P+ type diffusion regions of the semiconductor substrate and the lowest metallic layer. A plurality of via plugs electrically connect the multi-level metallic layers to each other.
