Abstract
The anti-fuse comprises a substitutable layer, an interconnection layerconnected to the substitutable layer, and the interconnection layer contains metal atoms which can be substituted with constituent atoms of the substitutable layer. The anti-fuse can be changed from the non-conduction state to the conduction state at a relatively low temperature of 300° C. to 600° C., and by application of not so intense laser beams, the anti-fuse can be changed from the non-conduction state to the conduction state. The anti-fuse can be changed from the non-conduction state to the conduction state by using an inexpensive equipment, which can realize decrease of fabrication costs and accordingly inexpensive semiconductor devices can be provided.
