Electro-explosive devices (EEDs) are often used in military, industry and civil applications because of their characteristic features such as versatility and easy operation mode. Conversion of electrical energy into thermal energy is underlying principle of EEDs to start off an explosive chemical reaction. Now a day’s demand for electro explosive devices is wide spread in the area of defence and civil application. To meet this demand researchers in defence area have successfully designed and developed different type of detonators.
Semiconductor bridge (SCB) igniters are advanced electro explosive devices [1] which are usually fabricated using state-of-the-art semiconductor fabrication technology. Plasma based detonation of explosives using Semiconductor Bridge (SCB) has several significant advantages over conventional hot-bridgewire (HBW) based explosive initiation in electro explosive device due to its most excellent no-fire performance, low all-fire energy (requires small quantities of electrical energy to function), fast function time, light weight, small volume, low cost, need only small quantities of
