ABSTRACT:
Antifuses are provided which include first and second conductive layers and an antifuse layer positioned between the first and second conductive layers. The antifuse layer includes at least one oxide layer positioned between two amorphous silicon layers. Interconnect structures and programmable logic devices are also provided which include the antifuses.
