20080238604 | VARISTOR AND LIGHT EMITTING DEVICE - In a varistor, a heat radiating portion contains the same components as ZnO that is the main component of a varistor element body, as metal oxides, thereby, the structural components of the varistor element body and the heat radiating portion are caused to be common. During firing, Ag contained in the heat radiating portion diffuses into the grain boundaries of ZnO, near the interface between surfaces of the heat radiating portion and the varistor element body. Consequently, in the varistor, cracks hardly occur between the varistor portion and the heat radiating portion during firing (or during binder removal), thereby, ensuring sufficient bonding strength between the varistor portion and the heat radiating portion. Therefore, heat conducted to the varistor portion is radiated efficiently conducting through electrically conducted paths formed in the heat radiating portion from the surface facing the varistor element body to other three surfaces of the heat radiating portion. | 10-02-2008 |
20090189732 | AGGREGATE SUBSTRATE, PRODUCTION METHOD OF AGGREGATE SUBSTRATE, AND VARISTOR - An aggregate substrate has a first varistor part, a second varistor part, and a heat dissipation layer The first varistor part includes a first varistor element layer to exhibit nonlinear voltage-current characteristics, and a plurality of first internal electrodes juxtaposed in the first varistor element layer. The second varistor part includes a second varistor element layer to exhibit nonlinear voltage-current characteristics, and a plurality of second internal electrodes juxtaposed in the second varistor element layer The heat dissipation layer is located between the first and second varistor parts and is in contact with the first and second varistor parts. | 07-30-2009 |

20130088319 | CHIP THERMISTOR AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SAME - A chip thermistor has a thermistor portion including a ceramic material containing respective metal oxides of Mn, Ni, and Co as major ingredients; a pair of composite portions including a composite material of Ag—Pd, and respective metal oxides of Mn, Ni, and Co and arranged on both sides of the thermistor portion so as to sandwich in the thermistor portion between the composite portions; and external electrodes connected to the pair of composite portions, respectively. In this manner, the pair of composite portions are used as bulk electrodes and, for this reason, the resistance of the chip thermistor can be adjusted mainly with consideration to the resistance in the thermistor portion without need for much consideration to the distance between the external electrodes and other factors. | 04-11-2013 |
