MUMBAI, India, Aug. 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517067935 A) filed by Murata Manufacturing Co. Ltd., Kyoto, Japan, on July 16, for 'multilayer ceramic capacitor.'

Inventor(s) include Mizuno, Hiroki.

The application for the patent was published on Aug. 1, under issue no. 31/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Provided is a multilayer ceramic capacitor in which a crack does not reach an internal electrode layer and fatal defects that may cause dielectric breakdown can be suppressed. This multilayer ceramic capacitor comprises: a multilayer body 12 which comprises a plurality of stacked dielectric layers 14; a first internal electrode layer 16a which is exposed in a first end surface 12e and a second internal electrode layer 16b which is exposed in a second end surface 12f, the internal electrode layers being disposed on the plurality of dielectric layers; and a first external electrode 30a and a second external electrode 30b. The multilayer body 12 has an internal layer part to which a plurality of first internal electrode layers 16a and a second internal electrode layer 16b are opposed. The dielectric layers 14 contain voids, and the voids are segregated in the dielectric layers 14. The dielectric layers 14 include a plurality of void-containing dielectric layers 14a, 14b and 14c which are different from each other in the area occupancy of voids (void fraction) in respective cross-sections of the dielectric layers 14."

The patent application was internationally filed on Jan. 17, 2024, under International application No.PCT/JP2024/001168.
