Abstract :
The letter describes a novel programmable link for restructuring wafer-scale circuits. These links are nonvolatile, fully reversible and require no special processing or programming equipment. In addition, they form low-resistance connections of less than 1 ¿ with high repeatability. Experimental results from analysing different link geometries are presented and practical aspects of the technique are described.
