The present invention includes forming a first conductive layer in a first dielectric layer, followed by forming a second dielectric layer on the first dielectric layer. The second dielectric layer is patterned to form openings on the second dielectric layer, a patterned photoresist is used as a mask to etch holes on the bottom of openings through the second dielectric layer to expose the surface of the first conductive layer 4, and an anti-fuse layer is formed on the second dielectric layer and on a surface of the holes. A photoresist is formed on the anti-fuse layer to expose un-programmable area, followed by plasma etching the anti-fuse layer on the unprogrammable area using the photoresist as mask to expose the first conductive layer on the un-programmable area. The photoresist is removed. A second conductive layer is formed on the anti-fuse layer and refilling into the holes. A planarization process is performed by chemical mechanical polishing to polish the second conductive layer to form a programmable anti-fuse.
