  • SEMICONDUCTOR STRUCTURE
    Publication number: 20220344283
    Abstract: A semiconductor structure serves to generate a physical unclonable function (PUF) code. The semiconductor structure includes a metal layer, N Titanium (Ti) structures, and N Titanium Nitride (Ti-N) structures, where N is a positive integer. The metal layer forms N metal structures. The Ti structures are respectively formed on one end of each metal structure. The Ti-N structures are respectively formed on top of the Ti structures. The metal structures and the corresponding Ti structures and the corresponding Ti-N structures respectively form a plurality of pillars. The pillars respectively provide a plurality of resistance values, and the resistance values serve to generate the PUF code.
