Jig for aligning/fixing oxide cathode and method of fabrication oxide cathodes using the same

摘要

A large number of oxide cathodes are aligned in an oxide cathode aligning/fixing jig which is formed in a plate shape composed of an upper member and lower member. The horizontal positions of the oxide cathodes fit in the cut holes are fixed by the upper member. The height of the upper surface of the metallic body of each of the oxide cathodes, on which a carbonate paste is to be printed is fixed by the lower member of the jig. By performing the screen printing for the metallic bodies in a state where the upper surfaces thereon are at equal heights, misalignment in printing pattern or variation in the thickness of the printed carbonate films can be suppressed. Thus, the screen printing can be carried out for the large number of oxide cathodes at a time at precise positions and with a uniform thickness of the carbonate layer.
