The present invention relates to a method for applying a diffusing agent to a grain boundary layer type semiconductor ceramic capacitor obtained by thermally diffusing a diffusing agent to the grain boundaries of semiconductor ceramic and providing a dielectric layer in the grain boundary region. Grain boundary dielectric layer semiconductors as capacitors are
Since it is necessary to increase the resistance of the grain boundary region between semiconductor crystals and provide a dielectric layer at the grain boundaries, various characteristics of the capacitor are greatly influenced by the method of applying the grain boundary diffusing agent. Conventional methods of applying a diffusing agent to grain boundary layer type semiconductor ceramic capacitors use solid powders of oxides, metals, etc. as the diffusing agent, and due to the nature of the particles, approximately 100 to 10,000 times the theoretical amount of diffusing agent is required. Not only that, but it was also extremely difficult to apply a diffusion agent layer with a uniform composition and a uniform film on the surface of a semiconductor ceramic. There are also vapor deposition methods that have solved the above drawbacks, but they are not mass-producible and are extremely costly. To solve these problems, it is necessary to develop a manufacturing method that allows the diffusion agent component to be uniformly and inexpensively formed on the semiconductor ceramic surface. That is, in the method for applying a diffusing agent for a grain boundary layer type semiconductor ceramic capacitor according to the present invention, a semiconductor ceramic capacitor substrate is coated with an organic metal soap containing a metal component of a diffusing agent, or an organic metal soap containing the metal component and an organic binder. It is characterized in that it is immersed in a mixed solution and then subjected to drying treatment such as heat treatment to form a metal component layer on the ceramic surface, followed by diffusion treatment. As shown in FIG. 1, an organic metal soap layer 2 is formed on the surface of the semiconductor ceramic substrate 1 using the above organic metal soap solution, and the ceramic substrate is formed by adjusting the heat treatment temperature, treatment atmosphere, degree of vacuum, etc. A metal layer, a metal oxide layer, etc. are formed on the surface of 1.
As a result, on the surface of the semiconductor ceramic substrate 1,
A metal layer and a metal oxide layer 6 made of a diffusing agent component are uniformly formed, and then a diffusion treatment is performed to form grain boundaries between the semiconductor crystals 3 of the semiconductor ceramic substrate 1, as shown in FIGS. 2a and 2b. 4 to form a dielectric layer 5. Further, if drying treatment such as heat treatment is not performed, film unevenness of the diffusing agent layer on the surface of the semiconductor ceramic substrate 1 will occur. Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically explained with reference to Examples. In the sample preparation process, industrial raw materials (purity 99
% or more) of SrCO 3 , TiO 2 , Nb 2 O 5 powder, etc.
This powder was wet mixed, dried, and calcined at a temperature of 1200° C. to obtain a SrO—TiO 2 —Nb 2 O 5 based calcined raw material powder. Next, this calcined raw material powder was pulverized into a powder with an average size of 2.5 μm, and an aqueous polyvinyl alcohol solution was added and mixed as a binder, and the sized powder was sized into 32 mesh passes, and the sized powder was shaped into a circle with a diameter of 15 mm and a thickness of 0.5 mm. After molding into a plate shape with a pressure of 1 ton/cm 2 and heat-treating these molded bodies in air at 1000°C, 90%
Baked for 3 hours at a temperature of 1400℃ in a mixed gas flow of N 2 - 10% H 2 to create a shape with a diameter of approximately 22.5 mm and a thickness of approximately 0.4 mm.
mm disk-shaped semiconductor porcelain was obtained. As a diffusing agent, the composition is known as Bi: 65mol
%, Cu: 35 mol%, as an example of the present invention Bi-Cu octylate (Bi: 65 mol%, Cu: 35 mol%),
Naphthenic acid Bi-Cu (Bi: 65mol%, Cu: 35mol
%), Bi 2 O: 65 mol%, Cu 2 O: as a conventional example.
A paste of 35 mol% oxide powder was prepared. As the diffusing agent of the present invention, solutions shown in Table 1 below were used.

[Table] Using the above-mentioned diffusing agent, in the example of the present invention, a semiconductor ceramic element was placed in a fluororesin net, immersed in a metal soap solution, and then dried in the atmosphere at 50 to 100°C. Here, an equivalent diffusing agent film was obtained even in the vacuum treatment. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 3, in the case where these treatments are not applied, uneven coating portions 7 of the diffusing agent layer occur on the semiconductor ceramic substrate 1, and the uneven coating portions 7 are likely to peel off due to impact, etc. . In addition, as a conventional example,
A suitable amount of turpentine oil or the like was added to pine resin and mixed to form a paste-like diffusing agent, which was evenly applied to the surface of a semiconductor ceramic element. The semiconductor ceramic element coated with the diffusing agent as described above was subjected to a diffusion treatment at a temperature of 1100 to 1200° C. in the atmosphere. In this thermal diffusion treatment, care was taken to ensure that the applied diffusion component was not lost to the outside of the sample due to evaporation, melting, or diffusion to the outside of the sample. In addition, regarding the amount of diffusion agent, diffusion temperature, and diffusion time, please refer to the following 2.
Shown in the table. Ag electrodes were baked on both sides of the disk-shaped element of the grain boundary dielectric layer type semiconductor porcelain thus obtained to make a capacitor element, and various properties shown in Table 3 below were investigated.

[Table] In Tables 2 and 3, Examples within the scope of the present invention are Samples No. 1 to No. 7, and the others are comparisons outside the scope. As is clear from the above example, εa,
Excellent tan δ, boost breakdown voltage, capacitance temperature change rate, and amount of diffusion agent used. These good results are due to the fact that the diffusing agent component is uniformly adhered to the surface of the semiconductor ceramic substrate in the form of fine particles. This is because there are more cases than in the conventional example. Therefore, the changes in characteristics regarding the amount of diffusing agent, diffusion temperature, and diffusion time are also superior to those of the conventional example. In this example, octyl acid type and naphthenic acid type were used as the organic metal soaps, but other organic types may be used, and Bi-Cu type was used as the diffusing agent, but other component types may also be used. Often results are better than conventional methods. As described above, the present invention is an extremely excellent manufacturing method for applying a diffusing agent, is extremely stable even in industrial mass production, and has great industrial value.
