Abstract

A method for fabricating ribbed electrodes that accommodates the shrinkage which occurs during thermal cycling reducing the cracks caused by the confining stresses of a mold. A composition comprising a metal selected from the group consisting of nickel, copper and mixtures thereof with chromium onto a ribbed mold. The mold and composition are prefired in a reducing atmosphere forming a ribbed electrode. The ribbed electrode is removed from the mold and sintered in a reducing atmosphere.
