There are provided a ceramic electronic component and a method for producing the ceramic electronic component, where a ground electrode layer can be directly coated with lead-free solder without lowering reliabilities. Terminal electrodeis provided with a ground electrode layerof Cu having been formed by firing, a solder layerformed of a lead-free solder based on five elements of Sn&#x2014;Ag&#x2014;Cu&#x2014;Ni&#x2014;Ge, and a diffusion layerhaving been formed by the diffusion of Ni between the ground electrode layerand the solder layer. Because the diffusion layerof Ni is formed between the ground electrode layerand the solder layer, the diffusion layer, which functions as a barrier layer, suppresses the solder leach of Cu from the ground electrode layer. The diffusion layerof Ni can also suppress the growth of fragile intermetallic compounds of Sn&#x2014;Cu. Therefore, a decrease in the bonding strength between the ground electrode layerand the solder layercan be prevented.

The present invention relates to image-formation on any selected kind of objective body. The characterizing features reside in such that, based upon fed image data, required images are formed on an image-transferable sheet acting for image carry-over service and in reliance on sublimation image transfer technique, and then, by the use of said sheet with said images thus formed thereon, the formed images thereon are transferringly applied on the objective body. By adopting the above measures, the objective body can be formed sharply and clearly with any desired images, irrespective of kind and configuration thereof, with such superior results of highly improved unity and solidability between the formed images and the objective body to be decorated with.

Image formation on objective bodies

An image-receiving sheet comprising a base sheet and a receiving layer, provided on one surface of said base sheet, for receiving a dye or a pigment migrating from a heat transfer sheet, said base sheet comprising one or two or more layers, at least one layer of said base sheet having a porous structure or a foamed structure.

Image-receiving sheet

A heat transfer sheet having a heat transfer layer on one surface of a base sheet, said heat transfer layer being formed of a material containing a dye substantially dissolved in a binder with a weight ratio of the dye to the binder (dye/binder ratio) of 0.3 or more, and said base sheet having a heat-resistant slipping layer provided on the surface on which the heat transfer layer is not provided. A heat transferable sheet to be used in combination with the heat transfer sheet, comprising a receptive sheet having (a) a base sheet and (b) a receptive layer for receiving the dye migrated from the above-mentioned heat transfer sheet on heating, said receptive sheet having an intermediate layer provided between the base sheet and the receptive layer.
