An antifuse is provided which includes a first conductive layer, an antifuse layer formed on the first conductive layer, and a second conductive layer formed on the antifuse layer. A portion of the antifuse layer forms a substantially orthogonal angle with the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer. This "corner" formation of the antifuse enhances the electric field at this location during programming, thereby providing a predictable location for the filament, i.e. the conductive path between the first and second conductive layers. This antifuse provides other advantages including: a relatively low programming voltage, good step coverage for the antifuse layer and the upper conductive layer, a low, stable resistance value, and minimal shearing effects on the filament.
