A semiconductive ceramic composition having negative resistance-temperature characteristics, wherein the composition comprises lanthanum cobalt oxide as the primary component, and, as secondary components, at least one oxide of an element selected from B, Fe and Al and at least one oxide of an element selected from Si, Zr, Hf, Ta, Sn, Sb, W, Mo, Te, Ce, Nb, Mn, Th and P. A semiconductive ceramic composition having a resistivity of approximately 10 .OMEGA..multidot.cm to 100 .OMEGA..multidot.cm at room temperature is obtained by controlling the amount of additives. Since the resistivity at room temperature can be enhanced to several times or more that of the conventional compositions while characteristics of the conventional compositions are maintained, the composition may be widely applied to control heavy current.

A monolithic type varistor in which a plurality of inner electrodes are arranged in a sintered body composed of semiconductor ceramics so as to be overlapped with each other while being separated by semiconductor ceramic layers. The plurality of inner electrodes are electrically connected to first and second outer electrodes formed on both end surfaces of the sintered body. One or more non-connected type inner electrodes are arranged between adjacent ones of the plurality of inner electrodes and are not electrically connected to the outer electrodes, each of the non-connected type inner electrodes being spaced apart from each adjacent inner electrode or non-connected type inner electrode while being separated therefrom by a semiconductor ceramic layer. Voltage non-linearity is obtained by Schottky barriers formed at the interface of the inner electrode and the semiconductor ceramic layer and the interface of the non-connected type inner electrode and the semiconductor ceramic layer. The value of the number of grain boundaries between semiconductor particles in at least one semiconductor ceramic layer is two or less.

A work piece is mixed with Ni pieces having an average diameter of 1 mm and exhibiting catalytic activity to oxidation reaction of sodium phosphinate (NaH2PO2) added as a reducing agent in a plating bath containing the reducing agent and a Ni salt to form a Ni—P film on an electrode made of Cu, Ag or Ag—Pd by auto-catalytic electroless plating. Then, the work piece is dipped in a plating bath containing an Au salt to form an Au film on the surface of the Ni—P film by substitutional electroless plating. This method is capable of forming a desired plating film only on a desired portion at a low cost.

A metallized ceramic structure includes a ceramic substrate preferably aluminum nitride and a metallic layer preferably tungsten bonded to the ceramic substrate. First and second mixture layers are formed between the ceramic substrate and the metallic layer to bond the ceramic substrate and the metallic layer. The first mixture layer is in contact with the ceramic substrate and the second mixture layer is in contact with the metallic layer. Each of the mixture layers includes a mixture of ceramic of the ceramic substrate and the metal of the metallic layer. The second mixture layer has a lower percentage of the ceramic than the first mixture layer.
