In one embodiment an anti-fuse structure is provided that includes a first dielectric material having at least a first anti-fuse region and a second anti-fuse region, wherein at least one of the anti-fuse regions includes a conductive region embedded within the first dielectric material. The anti-fuse structure further includes a first diamond like carbon layer having a first conductivity located on at least the first dielectric material in the first anti-fuse region and a second diamond like carbon layer having a second conductivity located on at least the first dielectric material in the second anti-fuse region. In this embodiment, the second conductivity is different from the first conductivity and the first diamond like carbon layer and the second diamond like carbon layer have the same thickness. The anti-fuse structure also includes a second dielectric material located atop the first and second diamond like carbon layers. The second dielectric material includes at least one conductively filled region embedded therein.
