Abstract
A multilayer ceramic capacitor is formed by alternately stacking a plurality of dielectric layers and a multiplicity of internal electrodes, which are connected to a pair of external electrodes. Each of the dielectric layers is obtained from a dielectric ceramic compound composed of ceramic grains and a glass component connecting the ceramic grains, and the glass component contains one or more additive elements in a form of a solid solution. The additive elements are selected from the group consisting of Mn, V, Cr, Mo, Fe, Ni, Cu and Co.
