  • Patent number: 7517418
    Abstract: A release layer 22 is formed on a surface of a first supporting sheet 20. Next, an electrode layer 12a is formed on a surface of the release layer 22. When the electrode layer 12a is pressed against a surface of a green sheet 10a to bond the electrode layer 12a with the green sheet 10a, an adhesive layer 28 is formed by a transfer method on a surface of the electrode layer 12a or a surface of the green sheet 10a. It becomes possible to easily transfer a dry type electrode layer to the surface of the green sheet with high accuracy without breaking or deforming the green sheet, moreover, components of the adhesive layer do not soak in the electrode layer or green sheet. Also, the supporting sheet is extremely easily released, and a production cost of a multilayer ceramic capacitor is reduced.
