1results about How to "Reduce step difference" patented technology

This disclosure provides a multilayer electronic component. The multilayer electronic component includes a body having a dielectric layer, a first inner electrode, and a second inner electrode, the first and second inner electrodes being alternately stacked in a first direction and the dielectric layer being intermediate between the first and second inner electrodes. The body defines a first and second surface opposite in the first direction, a third and fourth surface opposite in the second direction, and a fifth and sixth surface opposite in the third direction. A first dummy electrode is spaced apart from the first inner electrode and connected to the fifth or sixth surface, and a second dummy electrode is spaced apart from the second inner electrode and connected to the third or fourth surface. The first and second inner electrodes include main portions stacked on top of each other, the main portions including a recess at the center in the second direction, the recess having a shape recessed in the third direction to reduce step differences and improve reliability.
