Abstract

A pseudo rod, fabricated from several plate sections joined together at their edges and having a cross-section resembling a polygon approximates a rod having a circular cross section. Using multiple plates joined at their edges permits growing a crystalline material on the planar faced substrates and if the plates are crystalline material, the crystalline material grown thereon can have improved current carrying capability.
