A method and apparatus for joining flat-plate electrodes wherein a spacer, to which a joining material such as a low-melting-point crystallized glass containing a crystallization promoting agent is applied, is interposed between the electrodes to be joined. The electrodes and spacer are placed and held between upper and lower attraction dies. The upper and lower attraction dies are placed between upper and lower heating blocks for heating and pressing the electrodes and spacer through the attraction dies to join the electrodes via molten joining material.
