ABSTRACT:
An improved low voltage igniter of the type having an annular spark gap between a center electrode and annular ground electrode which is arranged coaxial with the center electrode. The spark gap is shunted by an insulator surface. Semiconducting material is deposited on the insulator surface as one or more rings which are coaxial with and spaced from the electrodes. The semiconducting rings reduce the voltage required to initiate a spark across the spark gap.
