A semiconductor device includes a lower-layer substrate, a fuse above the lower-layer substrate and blown by radiation with light, a silicon oxide film on the fuse and on an exposed portion of the surface of the lower-layer substrate, and a silicon nitride film on the silicon oxide film. The portion of the silicon oxide film on the surface of the lower-layer substrate is thicker than the fuse, and the silicon oxide film has an opening opposite the fuse.
