Abstract
A method for integrally forming a metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) device and an electrical fuse device on a semiconductor substrate includes the following steps. An isolation structure is formed on the semiconductor substrate. A dielectric layer is deposited over the isolation structure and the semiconductor substrate. A metal layer is deposited on the dielectric layer. A polysilicon layer is deposited on the metal layer. The dielectric layer, the metal layer and the polysilicon layer are patterned into a first stack of the dielectric layer, the metal layer and the polysilicon layer on the isolation structure for functioning as the electrical fuse device, and a second stack of the dielectric layer, the metal layer and the polysilicon layer on the semiconductor substrate for functioning as a gate of the MOS device.
