Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A dielectric composition includes a base material powder including barium titanate (BaTiO 3 ), and zirconium (Zr) within a range from greater than 0.5 moles to 1.5 moles, with respect to 100 moles of the base material powder. In addition, a multilayer capacitor includes the dielectric composition.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A multilayer capacitor comprising: a body including dielectric layers each having an average thickness of 0.4 μm or less, and internal electrodes each having an average thickness of 0.4 μm or less; and an external electrode disposed on the body to be connected to the internal electrodes, wherein the dielectric layers contain dielectric grains including a base material including barium titanate (BaTiO 3 ), and shell portions including an additive employed therein and grain boundaries present among the dielectric grains, wherein the shell portions of the dielectric layers include zirconium (Zr) within a range from greater than 0.5 moles to 1.5 moles or less, with respect to 100 moles of the base material. 2. The multilayer capacitor of claim 1 , wherein the shell portions of the dielectric layers further include gadolinium (Gd) within a range from 0.3 moles to 2.0 moles, with respect to 100 moles of the base material. 3. The multilayer capacitor of claim 1 , wherein the dielectric grains of the dielectric layers further include an aluminum (Al) oxide. 4. The multilayer capacitor of claim 1 , wherein the dielectric grains of the dielectric layers further include a magnesium (Mg) oxide or carbonate. 5. The multilayer capacitor of claim 1 , wherein the dielectric grains of the dielectric layers further include an aluminum (Al) oxide, and a magnesium (Mg) oxide, or carbonate. 6. The multilayer capacitor of claim 1 , wherein a length of the multilayer capacitor is less than or equal to 1.0 mm, and a width of the multilayer capacitor is less than or equal to 0.5 mm. 7. A multilayer capacitor comprising: a body comprising a plurality of first internal electrodes and a plurality of second internal electrodes that are alternately stacked with dielectric layers therebetween; and first and second external electrodes connected to the plurality of first internal electrodes and to the plurality of second internal electrodes, respectively, wherein an average thickness of one of the dielectric layers is 0.4 μm or less, and an average thickness of one of the plurality of first and one of the plurality of second internal electrodes is 0.4 μm or less, wherein the dielectric layers include barium titanate (BaTiO 3 ) as a perovskite material in which a plurality of Ti 4+ ion sites are occupied by ions having a same valence as the Ti 4+ ions and a different radius therefrom within a range from greater than 0.5 moles to 1.5 moles or less, with respect to 100 moles of the perovskite material. 8. The multilayer capacitor of claim 7 , wherein the Ti 4+ ion sites are occupied by Zr 4+ ions. 9. The multilayer capacitor of claim 7 , wherein the ions having the same valence as the Ti 4+ ions and occupying sites of the Ti 4+ ions of the perovskite material have a larger radius than the Ti 4+ ions of the perovskite material. 10. The multilayer capacitor of claim 7 , wherein the dielectric layers further include gadolinium (Gd) within a range from 0.3 moles to 2.0 moles, with respect to 100 moles of a material of the dielectric layers. 11. The multilayer capacitor of claim 7 , wherein the dielectric layers further include an aluminum (Al) oxide. 12. The multilayer capacitor of claim 7 , wherein the dielectric layers further include a magnesium (Mg) oxide or carbonate. 13. The multilayer capacitor of claim 7 , wherein the dielectric layers further include an aluminum (Al) oxide, and a magnesium (Mg) oxide or carbonate.
