Problems solved by technology

This makes it difficult to reduce the price and increase the capacitance of the monolithic ceramic capacitor.
Unfortunately, these base metals used as a conductive material of the internal electrodes are undesirably oxidized by firing under a high oxygen partial pressure.
Unfortunately, the relative dielectric constant of the strontium titanate-based nonreducing dielectric ceramic disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2000-53466 is as low as less than 150.
As for the strontium titanate-based nonreducing dielectric ceramic disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 63-224106, if the thickness of dielectric ceramic layers formed of this ceramic between the internal electrodes is reduced to achieve a miniaturized high-capacitance monolithic ceramic capacitor, the reliability for high temperature-loading is disadvantageously reduced.
Also, the relative dielectric constant of the strontium titanate-based nonreducing dielectric ceramic disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2001-351828 is disadvantageously as low as less than 100.

Abstract

A nonreducing dielectric ceramic comprising a (Sr, Ca)(Ti, Zr)O3-based perovskite principal crystal phase containing 55 mole percent or more of SrTiO3 and whose powder CuKalpha X-ray diffraction pattern exhibits a ratio of less than 5% of the maximum peak intensity of the accessory crystal phases being the other crystal phases to the intensity of the maximum peak of the perovskite crystal phase, which is present at 2theta=25° to 35°. This strontium titanate-based nonreducing dielectric ceramic has a high relative dielectric constant of 150 or more, a low third-order harmonic distortion ratio, and an excellent reliability in a high temperature-loading test. Accordingly, it is advantageously used for forming dielectric ceramic layers of a monolithic ceramic capacitor.

Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a strontium titanate-based nonreducing dielectric ceramic, a method for manufacturing the same, and a monolithic ceramic capacitor using the nonreducing dielectric ceramic. In particular, the present invention is intended to increase the relative dielectric constant of the nonreducing dielectric ceramic and to thus enhance the reliability of the monolithic ceramic capacitor.[0002] In general, dielectric ceramic materials are reduced to semiconductors by firing under a low oxygen partial pressure in, for example, a neutral or reducing atmosphere. Accordingly, internal electrodes of a monolithic ceramic capacitor comprising such a dielectric ceramic material have to be formed of a conductive material, such as palladium and platinum, that is not oxidized by firing under a high oxygen partial pressure nor is melted at the sintering temperature of the dielectric ceramic material. This makes it difficult to reduce the price and increase the capacita...
