Abstract

A semiconductor device comprising a first conductor having first and second portions which are electrically disconnected from each other, and a second conductor, formed on an insulating film separating it from the first conductor, which is electrically conductive. A radiated energy beam renders the second conductor non-conductive, while simultaneously electrically connecting the first and second portions, rendering the first conductor conductive, as needed.
