There is provided a semiconductor bridge device wherein a reaction time
for generating sparks is short and a spark generating amount is large.
This semiconductor bridge device comprises a substrate, a pair of land
portions, a bridge portion electrically connecting between the pair of
the land portions, and an electrode pad arranged on each upper surface in
the pair of the land portions and emitting sparks at the bridge portion
through an electric current passed between the electrode pads, in which
the pair of the land portions and the bridge portion consist of a
laminate formed by alternately laminating a metal layer and a metal oxide
layer plural times, and an outermost layer in the laminate is a metal
layer, and a metal oxide having a decomposition temperature of higher
than 1500.degree. C. is used in the metal oxide layer.
