Abstract
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device with a fuse is provided including the steps of providing a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) structure including an insulating layer and a semiconductor layer formed on the insulating layer, forming a first raised semiconductor region on the semiconductor layer and a second raised semiconductor region on the semiconductor layer adjacent to the first semiconductor region, and performing a silicidation process of the first and second raised semiconductor regions to form a first at least partially silicided raised semiconductor region with a first silicided portion and a second at least partially silicided raised semiconductor region with a second silicided portion.
