2O
3Be principal component Deng at least a alloy in the additive or with Pt and contain the high and fire-resistant expense consumption excellent material of the such oxidative resistance of at least a alloy in the additives such as Ir, Rh, Ru, Pd, Ni.Wherein, preferred Pt alloy.
In addition, irradiating laser and with pedestal 23 and 22 welding of noble metal termination.
And, among the present invention, irradiating laser as shown in Figure 2 and with central electrode 13 and 21 welding of noble metal termination.
Fig. 2 is a near cutaway view of representing the recess 30 of central electrode 13 along axis C; At first; Shown in Fig. 2 (A); Be provided with along the recess 30 of axis C depression at the front end of central electrode 13, in recess 30, hold noble metal termination 21, from perpendicular to the direction of axis C to wall 31 irradiating lasers that form recess 30.
Through this laser radiation, shown in Fig. 2 (B), the composition melting mixing of the composition of central electrode 13 and noble metal termination 21 and the puddle 40 that forms form and radially connect noble metal termination 21.In addition, 31a left behind to the part of the bottom surface side of recess 30 as the upper surface 31a of the axis direction front end of the wall 31 of recess 30 with from the upper surface.And the part of the bottom surface side of the recess 30 of noble metal termination 21 left behind.
Puddle 40 forms more that then the thickness of axis direction is thin more towards axis C; But as stated; The part of the upper surface side of the wall 31 through residual recess 30 and fusion, the upper surface 31a of wall 31 compares that upper end 40a is arranged in axis direction front (figure top) on the axis of puddle 40.In addition, the part of the bottom surface side of the recess 30 through residual noble metal termination 21 and fusion, the bottom surface 31b of recess 30 compares that rear end 40b is arranged in axis direction rear end side (figure below) on the axis of puddle 40.
In addition, shown in Fig. 2 (B), puddle 40 forms for the zone more than the 0.05mm for part 41 0.1mm more than (below be called " breakthrough part ") spreads all over the footpath width (W) that makes progress at the thickness on the axis (T).Laser radiation connects the wall 31 of recess 30 and carries out, and puddle 40 is partly dissolved in the laser radiation of wall 31.Therefore; If not so that the mode that noble metal termination 21 radially connects forms puddle 40; Then the principal component of wall 31 is that the Ni amount is excessive with respect to the noble metal amount of the noble metal termination 21 of fusion in puddle 40; Because the noble metal termination 21 of fusion and the difference of the hot exapnsion between the puddle 40 might not produce peeling off of noble metal termination 21.Therefore, need make the thinnest part (the being breakthrough part 41) thickness of puddle 40 is more than the 0.1mm, and width radially is more than the 0.05mm.
And the difference of alloy composition is more little between the each several part of puddle 40, and then the deviation of mechanical strength is more little, can suppress the generation in crack etc. more.Particularly, as shown in Figure 3, the diameter of establishing noble metal termination 21 is R, and the length with the overlapping part of axis C of breakthrough part 41 is L
