Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a nonlinear element having excellent nonlinearity having a metal-insulator-metal structure by forming an insulator, and then heat treating it in a predetermined temperature range in a nitrogen atmosphere. CONSTITUTION:In the manufacture of a nonlinear element of metal-insulator- metal structure MIM, a tantalum thin film is sputtered to a glass substrate, an anodic oxidation is executed at a predetermined voltage in an aqueous citric acid solution of predetermined concentration. Then, a sample is filled in a quartz tube, and it is heat treated in a predetermined temperature range while supplying nitrogen thereto. After chromium is added by sputtering, it is patterned, for example, in a dot shape having an area of 1mm in diameter. After an insulator is formed in this manner, a nonlinearity can be enhanced by heat treating it.
