Abstract

A multilayer ceramic capacitor includes: a multilayer structure in which each of a plurality of ceramic dielectric layers and each of a plurality of internal electrode layers including a ceramic co-material are alternately stacked, wherein a concentration of Mg in a ceramic grain that is included in the ceramic dielectric layer and contacts to the internal electrode layer is smaller than that in the co-material.

Claims (27)

1. A multilayer ceramic capacitor comprising:

a multilayer structure in which each of a plurality of ceramic dielectric layers and each of a plurality of internal electrode layers including a ceramic co-material are alternately stacked,

wherein a concentration of Mg in a ceramic grain that is included in the ceramic dielectric layer and contacts to the internal electrode layer is smaller than that in the co-material.

2. The multilayer ceramic capacitor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the ceramic grain is any one of ceramic grains in a stack direction of the multilayer structure in a region where a number of ceramic grains in the stack direction in the ceramic dielectric layer is one or two.

3. The multilayer ceramic capacitor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein:

the ceramic dielectric layer includes three or more ceramic grains continuing in series in a stack direction of the ceramic dielectric layer; and

a concentration of Mg in a ceramic grain not contacting to the internal electrode layer is smaller than that in the ceramic grain contacting to the internal electrode layer.

4. The multilayer ceramic capacitor as claimed in claim 2 , wherein a concentration of Mo in the co-material is smaller than that in the ceramic grain of the ceramic dielectric layer.

5. The multilayer ceramic capacitor as claimed in claim 3 , wherein a concentration of Mo in the co-material is smaller than that in the ceramic grain of the ceramic dielectric layer.

6. The multilayer ceramic capacitor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a main component of the ceramic grain and the co-material is barium titanate.

7. The multilayer ceramic capacitor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a main component of the internal electrode layer is Ni.

8. A manufacturing method of a multilayer ceramic capacitor comprising:

forming a green sheet including ceramic particles;

forming a multilayer structure by alternately stacking the green sheet and a conductive paste for forming an internal electrode including a ceramic co-material; and

baking the multilayer structure,

wherein an atomic concentration of Mg with respect to a main component ceramic of the ceramic particles in the green sheet is smaller than an atomic concentration of Mg with respect to a main component ceramic in the co-material of the conductive paste for forming an internal electrode.

9. The method as claimed in claim 8 , wherein:

the green sheet before the baking does not include Mg; and

the conductive paste for forming an internal electrode before the baking includes Mg.

10. The method as claimed in claim 8 , wherein a part of the co-material of the conductive paste for forming an internal electrode is diffused to the green sheet in the baking.

11. The method as claimed in claim 9 , wherein a part of the co-material of the conductive paste for forming an internal electrode is diffused to the green sheet in the baking.

12. The method as claimed in claim 8 , wherein an atomic concentration of Mo with respect to a main component ceramic of the ceramic particles in the green sheet is larger than that with respect to a main component ceramic of the co-material in the conductive paste for forming an internal electrode.

13. The method as claimed in claim 9 , wherein an atomic concentration of Mo with respect to a main component ceramic of the ceramic particles in the green sheet is larger than that with respect to a main component ceramic of the co-material in the conductive paste for forming an internal electrode.

14. The method as claimed in claim 10 , wherein an atomic concentration of Mo with respect to a main component ceramic of the ceramic particles in the green sheet is larger than that with respect to a main component ceramic of the co-material in the conductive paste for forming an internal electrode.

15. The method as claimed in claim 11 , wherein an atomic concentration of Mo with respect to a main component ceramic of the ceramic particles in the green sheet is larger than that with respect to a main component ceramic of the co-material in the conductive paste for forming an internal electrode.

16. The method as claimed in claim 8 , wherein a main component of the green sheet and the co-material is barium titanate.

17. The method as claimed in claim 8 , wherein a main component of the conductive paste for forming an internal electrode is Ni.
