PURPOSE: To provide a method for manufacturing a multilayer ceramic capacitor comprising a plurality of dielectric layers and inner electrode layers laminated alternately in which the level difference of sintered material due to the inner electrode layer is suppressed and the productivity and mountability are enhanced while preventing the internal structural defect which occurs especially in high multilayer device at the time of firing.
CONSTITUTION: Ceramic layers 6a, 6b are inserted, in parallel with the inner electrode 3a, into dielectric layers 1 on the opposite side faces at the opposite ends of an effective layer 4 where the inner electrode 3a is not present and into the dielectric layer 1 only at the part of the inner electrode 3a connected with the outer electrode 3a in order to correct the thickness of the inner electrode, and then the molded item is fired. Consequently, the level difference of sintered body can be suppressed, interlayer bonding is enhanced at the time of pressing a high laminate and inner structural defect is suppressed, resulting in a multilayer ceramic capacitor excellent in productivity, mountability, and characteristics.
