Abstract
Inexpensive methods for producing small-sized monolithic electronic parts with improved functions by which an electroconductive film can be formed uniformly, thin, and in fine patterns on a ceramic green sheet, a carrier film, or a resin film, for example. A plurality of such ceramic green sheets, etc., each having the electroconductive film formed thereon, are laminated to give a ceramic laminate, which is then sintered. The electroconductive film is formed on each ceramic green sheet, etc., by the steps of: applying a hydrophilic liquid containing an activating catalyst comprising copper oxide, a palladium salt and an alkaline solution, for example, to thereby form a photosensitive film comprising said liquid containing said activating catalyst, exposing the photosensitive predetermined regions to thereby deposit palladium catalyst on said regions, washing out the non-exposed regions of the photosensitive film with water or a liquid consisting essentially of water, and dipping the ceramic green sheet having palladium catalyst deposited thereon in an electroless plating bath to thereby form the intended electroconductive film by electroless plating.
