Abstract: In a ceramic electronic component, a first internal electrode includes a first opposed section and a first extraction section. The first opposed section is opposed to a second internal electrode with a ceramic layer interposed therebetween. The first extraction section is located closer to a first end surface than the first opposed section. The first extraction section is connected to a first external electrode. The number of cross-linked sections per unit area in the first extraction section is less than the number of cross-linked sections per unit area in the first opposed section.

Abstract: A power reception device and a power transmission device which are capable of suppressing an adverse effect of an electric field. A power reception device includes a capacitive coupling electrode comprising a high voltage side conductor and a low voltage side conductor extending around the high voltage side conductor. The high voltage side conductor is disposed on a surface of a housing. The low voltage side conductor is disposed inside a circuit board. A plurality of module parts are mounted on a surface of the circuit board which is located on an opposite side away from the high voltage side conductor with respect to the low voltage side conductor.

Abstract: An ultraviolet sensor has a p-type semiconductor layer composed of a solid solution of NiO and ZnO, and an n-type semiconductor layer composed of ZnO and joined to the p-type semiconductor layer such that a part of the surface of the p-type semiconductor layer is exposed. In the p-type semiconductor layer, trivalent Ni is contained in a crystal grain in a state of being solid-solved with the solid solution of NiO and ZnO. The trivalent Ni can be contained in the crystal grain of the p-type semiconductor layer by adding NiOOH to NiO and ZnO, and firing the resulting mixture. Thereby, an inexpensive ultraviolet sensor capable of being downsized, which can easily detect the intensity of ultraviolet light by a photovoltaic power without utilizing a peripheral circuit can be realized.

Abstract: In order to enable non-shrinkage firing, the strength of a multilayer ceramic substrate is increased by a method including alternately stacking a base material layer and a constrained layer which is not sintered at the sintering temperature for the base material layer, and allowing the material of the base material layer to flow into the constrained layer while subjecting the base material layer to sintering, thereby achieving densification of the constrained layer. The base material layer and the constrained layer each include celsian, and less celsian is provided in the base material layer than in the constrained layer. In order to increase the strength of the base material layer, the addition of a Ti component, rather than an increased content of Al component which interferes with sintering of the base material layer, causes fresnoite to be deposited in the base material layers.
