  • Publication number: 20160225526
    Abstract: A laminated ceramic electronic component with a cuboid-shaped element main body having a first main face and a second main face elongating along the length direction and the width direction, a first side face and a second side face elongating along the length direction and the height direction, and a first end face and a second end face elongating along the width direction and the height direction; and a pair of internal electrode layers opposite to each other in the height direction inside the element main body with a dielectric layer interposed therebetween in such a manner that they are exposed at the first end face or the second end face, wherein the thickness of the dielectric layer becomes larger from central portion to the first side face and the second side face.

  • Publication number: 20160217930
    Abstract: A laminated ceramic electronic component provided with a component main body formed by alternatively laminating multiple dielectric ceramic layers and multiple internal electrode layers, and external electrodes disposed on the end faces where the internal electrode layers of the component main body are exposed, wherein at least a part of the multiple internal electrode layers exposed on the end faces of the component main body are provided with end-face electrode portions that connect the adjacent internal electrode layers, the connecting portions are present between the end-face electrode portions and the dielectric ceramic layers that contact with the end-face electrode portions, and the external electrodes are disposed so that the end-face electrode portions are covered.

  • Publication number: 20150200055
    Abstract: The present invention is aimed to improve the poor insulation of the laminate-type ceramic electronic component having dielectric ceramic layers of 0.5 ?m or less. A laminate-type ceramic electronic component which is a laminated body having a laminated structure formed by laminating the first ceramic parts and the internal electrode layers alternately. The first ceramic parts have a main ingredient of ABO3 representing a perovskite-type crystal in which site A contains at least Ba and site B contains at least Ti. The laminate-type ceramic electronic component has external electrodes which are connected with the internal electrodes. The end edge parts of the internal electrodes other than the end connected with the external electrodes are connected with the second ceramic parts. The second ceramic parts contain aluminum oxide as a main ingredient.
