Title:
PROCESSING A MEMORY LINK WITH A SET OF AT LEAST TWO LASER PULSES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003052890
Kind Code:
B1
Abstract:
A set (50) of laser pulses (52) is employed to sever a conductive link (22) in a memory or other IC chip. The duration of the set (50) is preferably shorter than 500 ns; and the pulse width of each laser pulse (52) within the set (50) is preferably within a range of about 0.1 ps to 30 ns. The set (50) can be treated as a single "pulse" by conventional laser positioning systems (62) to perform on-the-fly link removal without stopping whenever the laser system (60) fires a set (50) of laser pulses (52) at each link (22). Conventional IR wavelengths or their harmonics can be employed.
