Patent ID: 8702885

Claim:
A method of manufacturing ceramics, comprising: placing, on a base material, a first slurry in which a metal oxide powder containing at least metal elements constituting the ceramics is dispersed; applying a magnetic field to the first slurry to solidify the first slurry, thereby forming an under coat layer made of a first compact; placing, on the under coat layer, a second slurry containing a metal oxide powder constituting the ceramics; applying a magnetic field to the second slurry to solidify the second slurry, thereby forming a second compact to obtain a laminated body of the second compact and the under coat layer; and obtaining the ceramics made of the second compact by one of removing the under coat layer from the laminated body of the second compact and the under coat layer and then sintering the second compact, and sintering the laminated body of the second compact and the under coat layer and then removing the under coat layer.
