Abstract
A fuse structure, an e-fuse including the fuse structure and a semiconductor device including the e-fuse are disclosed. The fuse structure includes first and second electrodes extending in a first direction, and spaced a predetermined distance apart from each other and having one ends thereof facing each other, an insulation layer formed between the one end of the first electrode and the one end of the second electrode facing each other, and a conductive film overlapping portions of the first and second electrodes on the insulation layer and contacting the first electrode and the one end of the second electrode.
