Patent number: 10395828Abstract: The dielectric layers are formed from a dielectric porcelain formed from crystal particles containing barium titanate as a main component and containing a rare earth element, and the crystal particles have, in a particle boundary vicinity, a low concentration region in which the concentration of the rare earth element is lower than the concentration of the rare earth element in an inside. The crystal particles further contain vanadium, and the low concentration region contains a larger amount of the vanadium than the amount of the vanadium in the inside. The crystal particles further contain magnesium and manganese, and the magnesium and the manganese have a concentration gradient that is at a maximum at the particle boundary vicinity and that lowers toward the inside.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2016Date of Patent: August 27, 2019Assignee: KYOCERA CorporationInventors: Masahiro Nishigaki, Hideyuki Osuzu, Jun Ueno, Masaaki Nagoya, Shota Mukoyama

Patent number: 8420559Abstract: Disclosed is a multilayer ceramic capacitor which is formed by alternately laminating (i) dielectric layers composed of a dielectric ceramic and (ii) internal electrode layers. The dielectric ceramic is composed of crystal grains mainly composed of barium titanate, while containing predetermined amounts of magnesium, vanadium, manganese and terbium, and at least one rare earth element selected from yttrium, dysprosium, holmium and erbium. In an x-ray diffraction chart of the dielectric ceramic, the diffraction intensity of the (200) plane indicating cubic barium titanate is higher than the diffraction intensity of the (002) plane indicating tetragonal barium titanate. The dielectric ceramic has a Curie temperature of 110-120° C.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2009Date of Patent: April 16, 2013Assignee: Kyocera CorporationInventors: Masahiro Nishigaki, Hideyuki Osuzu, Jun Ueno, Hiroaki Mino

Patent number: 8059388Abstract: The invention relates to a multilayer ceramic capacitor having dielectric layers and internal electrode layers disposed alternately. The dielectric layers include a dielectric ceramic containing barium titanate as a main component, and also calcium, magnesium, vanadium, manganese, and a rare-earth element. Crystals constituting the dielectric ceramic are constituted by grains containing barium titanate as their main component and containing calcium in a concentration of 0.2 atomic % or less or containing the calcium in a concentration of 0.4 atomic % or more. The crystals grains are also distinct in their relative distributions of magnesium and rare-earth elements between the center of the grain and the surface of the grain. Finally, the relative areas of the two kinds of crystals observed in the plane of a polished surface of the dielectric ceramic are described by a ratio b/(a+b), which is 0.5 to 0.8.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2007Date of Patent: November 15, 2011Assignee: Kyocera CorporationInventors: Youichi Yamazaki, Hideyuki Osuzu, Yoshihiro Fujioka, Daisuke Fukuda
