- the first penetrating portion 71 extends through the glass film 50 from the first internal electrode 41 toward the first base electrode 61A, thereby connecting the first internal electrode 41 and the first base electrode 61A.
- the second through portion 72 that connects the second internal electrode 42 and the second base electrode 62A.
- the plating step S22 is performed. Electroplating is performed on the portions of the first base electrode 61A and the second base electrode 62A. Specifically, barrel plating is performed. In the barrel plating, the element body 20 provided with the first base electrode 61A and the second base electrode 62A and the media are placed in a barrel and stirred. Thereby, the first metal layer 61B is formed on the surface of the first base electrode 61A. Along with this, the medium collides with the uncovered portion AU of the glass film 50, and the surface of the glass film 50 at the uncovered portion AU is scraped. Therefore, the thickness of the uncovered portion AU is reduced. Moreover, the unevenness of the surface of the uncoated portion AU becomes flatter than the state before the barrel plating.
- the medium does not collide with the boundary part AB of the glass film 50 because the first metal layer 61B interferes with it. Therefore, the thickness of the boundary portion AB is greater than the thickness of the uncovered portion AU. Furthermore, the thickness of the border point AB remains greater than the thickness of the coated point AC.
- a second metal layer 62B is also formed on the surface of the second base electrode 62A. Although not shown, the first metal layer 61B and the second metal layer 62B are electroplated with two kinds of nickel and tin to form a two-layer structure. Thus, the electronic component 10 is formed.
- part of the outer edge of the first metal layer 61B directly covers the glass film 50 .
- the first metal layer 61B has lower adhesion to the glass film 50 than the first base electrode 61A containing glass. Therefore, moisture may enter between the outer edge of the first metal layer 61B and the glass film 50, and the glass film 50 may be exposed to moisture for a long time.
- the portion of the glass film 50 that is likely to be directly covered with the first metal layer 61B, that is, the boundary portion AB has a greater thickness than the uncovered portion AU.
- the first metal layer 61B has been described as an example, the same applies to the second metal layer 62B.
- the thickness of the boundary point AB is greater than the thickness of the covered point AC. That is, the thickness of the covered portion AC is smaller than the thickness of the boundary portion AB.
- the thickness of the uncovered portion AU which is the smallest among the covered portion AC, the boundary portion AB, and the uncovered portion AU, is 30 nm or more. Therefore, it is possible to ensure a sufficient thickness to protect the base body 20 at the portion not covered with the first base electrode 61A.
- the thickness of the boundary point AB which is the thickest among the covered point AC, the boundary point AB, and the uncovered point AU, is 1000 nm or less. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the electronic component 10 from becoming large as a whole due to the excessively large thickness of the boundary portion AB.
- the first base electrode 61A and the second base electrode 62A have numerous pores P. Further, during and after the manufacturing process of the electronic component 10, fine cracks may occur in the first base electrode 61A and the second base electrode 62A. Therefore, depending on the environment in which the electronic component 10 is used, moisture adhering to the electronic component 10 may enter the pores P and cracks. Furthermore, if the pores P and the cracks reach the glass film 50 , moisture present inside the pores P and the cracks will come into contact with the glass film 50 . If a fine crack occurs in the glass film 50, moisture may reach the element body 20 through the crack.
- the thickness of the covered portion AC is greater than the thickness of the uncovered portion AU. Therefore, even if moisture or the like reaches the boundary between the glass film 50 and each base electrode depending on the environment in which the electronic component 10 is used, the moisture or the like may be absorbed into the base body by the thickness of the coated portion AC of the glass film 50, which is large. Reaching 20 can be suppressed. Note that since the uncovered portion AU of the glass film 50 is not covered with the first external electrode 61, even if moisture adheres, it volatilizes into the atmosphere. In other words, it is unlikely that the uncovered portion AU will continue to be exposed to moisture for a long period of time. Therefore, even if the thickness of the uncovered portion AU of the glass film 50 is relatively small, it is possible to sufficiently prevent moisture or the like from reaching the element body 20 .
- the variation coefficient of the thickness of the covered portion AC is larger than the variation coefficient of the thickness of the uncovered portion AU.
- the covered portion AC of the glass film 50 has a rougher surface than the uncovered portion AU. Therefore, the adhesion to each base electrode can be enhanced at the covered portion AC. As a result, it becomes easier to prevent moisture or the like from accumulating between each underlying electrode and the glass film 50 .
- each base electrode contains glass. Therefore, as in the manufacturing method of the embodiment, when the glass in the conductive paste is melted in forming each base electrode, the low-melting-point substance of the glass diffuses into the glass film 50 . This makes it easy to increase the thickness of the covered portion AC.
- each base electrode is a sintered body containing silver.
- the sintered body has a large number of pores P that are hollow inside. Therefore, moisture and gas tend to accumulate inside the pores P of the base electrode, which is a sintered body. Therefore, there is a high possibility that moisture will accumulate at the boundary between the underlying electrode and the glass film 50 .
- the outer surface 21 of the element body 20 is all covered with the glass film 50, the first base electrode 61A, or the second base electrode 62A. Therefore, it is possible to prevent moisture and gas from entering the element body 20 from the outside of the electronic component 10 over the entire area of the outer surface 21 .

Therefore, in such cases, the boundary surface 23 and the corner surface 24 may not exist.

- a pure glass layer 151 is laminated on the outer surface 21 at the covered portion AC.
- the materials of the first base electrode 61A are silver and glass.
- the glass of the first base electrode 61A contains alkali metals and alkaline earth metals as additives.
- the pure glass layer 151 does not contain the metal component of the first base electrode 61A. Therefore, in this modification, the pure glass layer 151 does not contain silver, alkali metals and alkaline earth metals.
- the pure glass layer 151 is made only of silicon dioxide.
- the minimum thickness of the covered portion AC of the glass film 150 is 10 nm or more. In addition, the minimum thickness is calculated as follows.
- a cross section perpendicular to the first end surface 22A and one side surface 22C is photographed with an electron microscope.
- the portion where the thickness of the glass film 150 is the smallest is specified.
- the thickness of the identified portion is measured on the image. The thickness thus measured is the minimum thickness of the coated portion AC of the glass film 150 .
- the entire glass film contains the metal component of the first base electrode 61A.
- the metal component in the glass film penetrates inside the outer surface 21 of the element body 20 .
- the metal component contained in the glass film is silver and the element body 20 contains manganese is taken as an example.
- the crystal structure in the vicinity of the outer surface 21 of the element body 20 changes from a state composed of manganese and oxygen to a state in which silver is also added. Therefore, the silver that has entered the element body 20 is restrained by the element body 20 . Since silver is diffused in the glass film, the silver that has entered the element body 20 is connected to the silver in the conductive paste through the silver in the glass film.
- the silver in the conductive paste is also constrained to the element body 20 side through the silver in the glass film. As a result, the silver in the conductor paste becomes less likely to collect in the curing step S21.

Therefore, as described above, silver in the conductive paste does not become difficult to move due to the layer. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the sintering from becoming difficult due to the silver in the conductive paste becoming difficult to collect, thereby preventing the sintering time from becoming excessively long.
- the pure glass layer 151 is made only of silicon dioxide. Therefore, even if the first base electrode 61 ⁇ /b>A contains an additive, it is possible to prevent excessive diffusion of alkali metals and alkaline earth metals, which are components of the additive, into the glass film 150 .
- the minimum thickness of the coated portion AC of the glass film 150 is 10 nm or more. Therefore, even if a suitable amount of the metal component contained in the conductive paste diffuses into the glass film 150 in the curing step S21 of the manufacturing process, the part on the outer surface 21 side does not contain the metal component. A pure glass layer 151 is present. Therefore, it becomes easier to stably manufacture the pure glass layer 151 .
