However, in such a conventional high-pressure sodium lamp, since the electrode rod 17 made of tungsten and the conductive wire 18 mainly made of niobium are joined, a high temperature during joining is high. As a result, recrystallization occurs near the joint 19 between the electrode rod 17 and the conductive wire 18. Further, since the joining portion 19 is provided close to the brazing material 21, when the conductive wire 18 is fixed to the conductive tube 20, that is, at a high temperature of 2000 ° C. or more during brazing, the conductive wire 1
8, recrystallization near the junction 19 between the electrode rod 17 and the conductive wire 18 progresses. In addition, since heat is directly transmitted to the joint 19 while the lamp is turned on, recrystallization proceeds gradually. As a result, there is a problem that the electrode rod 17 becomes brittle and is easily broken due to vibration or impact during handling of the lamp or during use of the lamp, which causes a problem that the lamp does not turn on.
