In an intermediate stage of fabricating the lamp, a bonding material ring of limited diameter is provided at the end of the capillary tube about the exterior end. In a completed lamp, the first electrical feedthrough has limited extent joints where its components are joined and, alternatively or in addition, has a limited offset between its components at a joint between them.
