Abstract
A thermistor film is prepared by first preparing an alcohol solution is prepared by dissolving a metal compound in one or more kinds of polyvalent alcohols selected from the group consisting of ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol and glycerin. A coating solution is then prepared by adding and mixing an organic acid having a carboxyl group to the alcohol solution. The coating solution is coated on the surface of a heat-resistant substrate to form a coating film, the substrate on which the coating film is formed is dried and subjected to heat treatment to form a composite oxide precursor containing a metal of the above metal compound, and the precursor is calcined at a temperature of 600.degree. to 1000.degree. C. The method of the present invention can form a thermistor thin film which is dense and uniform over a wide range by simple and easy operations at a low cost.
