摘要:
A multilayer ceramic electronic component including thin external terminal electrodes each having a superior bonding force to a ceramic base body is provided. In order to form the external terminal electrodes, after Cu plating films are deposited on exposed portions of internal electrodes by direct plating on a ceramic base body, a Cu liquid phase, an O2-containing liquid phase, and a Cu solid phase are generated between the Cu plating film and the ceramic base body by a heat treatment, so that Cu oxides are dispersed in the Cu plating film, at least near an interface with the ceramic base body. Since the Cu oxides function as an adhesive, a bonding force of the Cu plating film to the ceramic base body can be increased, and hence the external terminal electrode having a superior bonding force to the ceramic base body can be obtained.

A laminated body is prepared, in which at an end surface at which internal electrodes are exposed, the internal electrodes disposed adjacently are electrically isolated from each other, and a distance between the internal electrodes disposed adjacently is about 20 μm or less when measured along the thickness direction of an insulator layer, and a withdrawn-depth of the internal electrodes is about 1 μm or less when measured from the end surface. In a step of electroless plating, plating deposits formed at the end portions of the plurality of internal electrodes are increased in size so as to be connected to each other.

An electronic component, preferably in the form of a laminated ceramic capacitor, which suppresses the growth of whiskers and has excellent solderability, includes an electronic component element in the shape of, for example, a rectangular parallelepiped. External electrodes of terminal electrodes are located on first and second end surfaces of the electronic component element. First plated films including plated Ni are located on the surfaces of the external electrodes. Second plated films are located on the surfaces of the first plated films. The second plated films have stacked structures including first plated layers and second plated layers. The second plated layers have lower degrees of densification than the first plated layers.

A ceramic electronic component includes a ceramic body and a plurality of external electrodes disposed at a surface of the ceramic body. The external electrodes include a plating layer containing glass particles each coated with a metal film. The plating layer is formed by co-deposition of a plating metal and the metal-coated glass particles.
摘要:
In a laminated ceramic electronic component in which, by directly carrying out a plating process on an outer surface of a component main body, an external electrode is formed thereon, an attempt is made to improve the adhesion strength between a plated film forming the external electrode and the component main body. A brazing material containing Ti is applied to at least one portion of a surface on which external electrodes of a component main body is formed, and by baking this brazing material, a metal layer containing Ti is formed. Moreover, the external electrodes are formed by a plating process so as to coat at least the metal layer, and a heating process is then carried out so as to cause counter diffusion between the metal layer and the plated film that is to form the external electrodes.
