Abstract

A protective pattern is formed on a semiconductor substrate in a shape covering a circuit region and exposing an air bridge connecting portion, a metallic film and an insulating film are formed to cover the protective pattern, the metallic film and the insulating film are patterned to form air bridge wiring and an air bridge protective film covering the air bridge wiring, and thereafter, the protective pattern is removed to form a hollow between the air bridge wiring and the circuit region.
