Abstract
A low-ohmic chip resistor with high conductivity is fabricated. The chip resistor has an electrode of a base metal or base-metal alloy. The base-metal or base-metal-alloy electrode and a resistor layer are fabricated through thick-film printing with sintering at a low temperature in the air. Therein, a thick-film paste made of a cheap low-reduction-potential metal (such as aluminum (Al) or nickel (Ni)) is formed through screen-printing and sintering. Then, the layer of the cheap low-reduction-potential metal is used as a sacrificial layer to be immersed in a metal solution having a high reduction potential. Therein, a wet chemical alternation reaction is processed for obtaining a metal electrode having the high reduction potential. Or, the sacrificial layer may be immersed in a mixed solution of several different metal having high reduction potential to process wet chemical alternation reaction for obtaining an alloy of metal mixed with different composition.
