Zusammenfassung: | This invention relates to a solid-state or integrated circuit-type igniter die ( 10 ) having a bridge ( 18 ) that is formed on a non-planar surface of a substrate ( 12 ), and which therefore has a non-planar configuration. Igniter die ( 10 ), according to this invention therefore has a three-dimensional configuration and, preferably, a configuration that can enclose a reactive material ( 26 ) therein. In a typical embodiment, the bridge ( 18 ) of an igniter element of this invention has a tubular configuration. Reactive material ( 26 ) is disposed within the interior of the tube ( 14 ) and a charge of electric current is flowed through the tube ( 14 ) from o the other to form a plasma that initiates the remaining reactive material ( 26 ). |
