Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A multilayer capacitor includes a body in which a plurality of internal electrodes are stacked, including a ceramic sintered body; and external electrodes disposed on an external surface of the body and electrically connected to the internal electrodes. The ceramic sintered body includes a liquid pocket.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A multilayer capacitor comprising: a body in which a plurality of internal electrodes are stacked, including a ceramic sintered body; and external electrodes disposed on an external surface of the body and electrically connected to the internal electrodes, wherein the ceramic sintered body includes a liquid pocket, and wherein a diameter of the liquid pocket is within a range from 10 to 50 nm. 2. The multilayer capacitor of claim 1 , wherein the liquid pocket is disposed at a grain boundary in the ceramic sintered body. 3. The multilayer capacitor of claim 2 , wherein the liquid pocket is disposed at a multiple grain boundary by at least three grains adjacent to each other among a plurality of grains included in the ceramic sintered body. 4. The multilayer capacitor of claim 2 , wherein among a plurality of grains included in the ceramic sintered body, a grain adjacent to the liquid pocket has a smaller size than that of a grain not adjacent to the liquid pocket. 5. The multilayer capacitor of claim 4 , wherein among the plurality of grains included in the ceramic sintered body, an average size of the grains adjacent to the liquid pocket is smaller than an average size of the grains that are not adjacent to the liquid pocket. 6. The multilayer capacitor of claim 1 , wherein the ceramic sintered body is formed of a BT based ceramic material, and contains at least one of Si or Al ingredients as addition ingredients. 7. The multilayer capacitor of claim 1 , wherein an average interval between internal electrodes adjacent to each other among the plurality of internal electrodes is 0.4 μm or less. 8. The multilayer capacitor of claim 1 , wherein an average thickness of the plurality of internal electrodes is 0.4 μm or less. 9. The multilayer capacitor of claim 1 , wherein the liquid pocket is disposed in a dielectric layer separating adjacent internal electrodes. 10. A multilayer capacitor of comprising: a body in which a plurality of internal electrodes are stacked, including a ceramic sintered body; and external electrodes disposed on an external surface of the body and electrically connected to the internal electrodes, wherein the ceramic sintered body includes a liquid pocket, and wherein an average diameter of the liquid pocket is within a range from 10 to 50 nm. 11. The multilayer capacitor of claim 1 , wherein the ceramic sintered body further includes a void. 12. The multilayer capacitor of claim 11 , wherein the void has a larger size than that of the liquid pocket. 13. The multilayer capacitor of claim 11 , wherein the void has a size of 0.1 to 10 μm based on a cross section.
