Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A ceramic electronic component that includes an electronic component body having a superficial base ceramic layer; a surface electrode on a surface of the electronic component body, a peripheral section of the surface electrode having an opening therein; and a covering ceramic layer covering the peripheral section of the surface electrode and the opening therein.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A ceramic electronic component comprising: an electronic component body including a superficial base ceramic layer; a surface electrode on a surface of the electronic component body, a peripheral section of the surface electrode having an opening therein; and a covering ceramic layer covering the peripheral section of the surface electrode and the opening therein. 2 . The ceramic electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the opening extends completely through the surface electrode. 3 . The ceramic electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the opening is a hole or a slit. 4 . The ceramic electronic component according to claim 1 , wherein the surface electrode includes a first sintered layer on the superficial base ceramic layer, a second sintered layer on the first sintered layer, and a plating layer on the second sintered layer. 5 . The ceramic electronic component according to claim 4 , wherein the first sintered layer contains a metal oxide containing at least one metal element selected from Al, Zr, Ti, Si, and Mg. 6 . The ceramic electronic component according to claim 5 , wherein the second sintered layer contains the metal oxide in an amount smaller than that contained in the first sintered layer.
