Abstract
According to one embodiment, a Vacuum interrupter includes a pair of electrodes provided such that their electrode opposed surfaces face each other, and an undulating structure provided in at least one of the electrode opposed surfaces. The undulating structure includes one or more projections which project from the electrode opposed surface, and depressions provided so as to be adjacent to the projections, respectively. The projections and the depressions are alternately provided in a direction crossing the electrode opposed surface. In a conducting state in which the electrodes are in contact with each other, the projections are in contact with the opposite electrode opposed surface.
