Patent ID: 6960271

Claim:
A method of producing a laminate type dielectric device formed by alternately laminating dielectric ceramic layers and electrode layers, comprising at least: a first step of forming green sheets by shaping a ceramic material into a sheet form; a second step of applying an electrode paste material to both surfaces of said green sheets; a third step of laminating green sheets applied with said electrode paste material, and bonding them together; a fourth step of degreasing a laminate product so bonded; and a fifth step of integrally baking the materials in said electrode layer and the materials in said dielectric ceramic layer within the same process step; wherein the laminate product contains, in said electrode layer as its principal component, an electrically conductive base metal material having greater standard Gibbs free energy for the formation of a metal oxide at a baking temperature than that of said ceramic material, and further contains, at least in said electrode layer, a melting restrictive material for restricting melting of an oxide of said electrically conductive base metal material existing, or formed, in said fifth step, and is prepared immediately before said fifth step; and the electrode paste material is a designated electrode paste material which is applied to both surfaces of said green sheets, and green sheets applied with said electrode paste material are laminated while sandwiching electrically conductive powder or thin film, and are integrally baked.
