Patent ID: 7387870

Claim:
A method for manufacturing a ceramic green sheet utilizing an exposure process and a development process, comprising: attaching a photosensitive material including a powder having a specific electric characteristic to a front side surface of a member having a portion that can transmit light used in said exposure process, said photosensitive material being sensitive to said light, and said front side surface being a surface on which a sheet is to be formed; shaping said light into a predetermined pattern by passing through a mask disposed on the back side of said member and irradiating said photosensitive material with that light from the back side only of said member to irradiate said photosensitive material with that light which is shielded by said predetermined pattern and to perform said exposure process with such an exposure amount that said photosensitive material is cured to a predetermined depth within a range below the thickness of the photosensitive material attached on the surface of said member; and performing said development process on said photosensitive material after said exposure process.
