Abstract: A compact laminated ceramic electronic component having superior moisture resistance and electrical properties is provided. A laminated ceramic electronic component 1 includes an inner layer portion that contains a plurality of dielectric layers 2a and internal electrode layers 3 comprising Ni as a main component that are laminated alternately, and a pair of dielectric outer layer portions 2b which sandwich the inner layer portions. And Ni particles are segregated in the dielectric outer layer portions 2b. And the amount of Ni particles existing in the dielectric layers 2a is smaller than that in the dielectric outer layer portions 2b.

Abstract: A dielectric ceramic composition comprising a main component and at least one or more subcomponent elements has a dielectric particle and a grain boundary. The dielectric particle has a main component phase substantially composed of the main component, and a diffusive phase around the main component phase where at least one selected from the subcomponent elements is diffused, a local minimal value of Cs is located at an outside edge side with respect to a position of the local maximum value of Cs, and Cs is increased from a position of the local minimal value of Cs toward the outside edge, when the dielectric particle is cut on an arbitrary cutting plane including the main component phase, and Cs is defined as a concentration of one or more elements selected from the subcomponent elements in an arbitrary position in the dielectric particle.
