Temperature probe and method for producing a temperature probe

A method for producing a temperature probe, comprising:

• arranging ceramic sensor materials in an opening in each of two first ceramic films;
• arranging a second ceramic film between the two first ceramic films;
• respectively arranging first electrodes of a plurality of electrodes between the second ceramic film and each of the two first ceramic films between which the second ceramic film is arranged, wherein the first electrodes of the plurality of electrodes each electrically contact ceramic sensor material arranged in a first ceramic film of the two first ceramic films;
• arranging the first and the second ceramic films between two third ceramic films;
• respectively arranging second electrodes of the plurality of electrodes between each of the third ceramic films and a first ceramic film of the two first ceramic films, the second electrodes of the plurality of electrodes each electrically contacting ceramic sensor material arranged in a first ceramic film of the two first ceramic films, wherein the ceramic sensor materials are each laterally completely enclosed by ceramic films;
• sintering the first, the second, and the third ceramic films and the ceramic sensor material to form a ceramic body comprising first, second and third ceramic films and NTC sensor elements;
• and
• applying at least two terminal caps to the ceramic body such that each of the terminal caps is connected with two electrodes of the plurality of electrodes.
