Abstract
An electrode plate is constituted by a substrate, a plurality of metal electrodes formed with gaps therebetween in a prescribed pattern on the substrate, and a resin filling the gaps. The substrate is provided with an elongated projection disposed in a peripheral region thereof. The elongated projection formed on the substrate is effective in preventing the resin from flowing out from the sides of the substrate, thus suppressing an insufficient filling portion in the gaps between the metal electrode to provide a uniform and smooth surface of the resin and the metal electrode in combination.
