Abstract
With the recent trend of down-sizing and more efficient use of electric power in electric appliances, there is a growing need of smaller electronic components, such as multi-layered ceramic capacitors (MLCCs). However, it was found that the non-uniform deformation occurred in MLCC block during the pressing process and it hinders the miniaturization of MLCCs. In this study, compression tests of multi-layered ceramic sheets with printed electrodes were carried out and the deformation behavior was observed in situ and recorded by digital video camera. The change in area fraction and transverse displacement were evaluated and the deformation mechanism was inferred from the results.
