Dielectric ceramic composition and laminated ceramic capacitor

Abstract

There is provided a dielectric ceramic composition that is a dielectric ceramic material used for a laminated ceramic capacitor; that can be co-fired with internal electrodes mainly composed of Ni at a temperature of 1300° C. or less; and that has a high dielectric constant, good temperature characteristics of capacitance in a range of −55 to 175° C., and a high resistivity ρ at 175° C. The dielectric ceramic composition includes a main component represented by a composition formula (1-a) (K1-xNax)(Sr1-y-zBayCaz)2Nb5O15-a(Ba1-bCab)TiO3 (where a, b, x, y, and z are all molar amounts and 0.3≦a≦0.8, 0≦b≦0.2, 0≦x<0.2, 0.1≦y≦0.5, 0.1≦z≦0.5, and 0.2≦y+z≦0.7); and M, as an additional component, in an amount of 0.1 to 40 parts by mole relative to 100 parts by mole of the main component (where M is at least one element from the group of V, Mn, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, Mg, and Si).
