In a green laminate body including a plurality of base green layers and a plurality of constraining green layers for forming a monolithic ceramic substrate by using a non-shrinking process, when the thicknesses of the base green layers differ from each other, a thicker base green layer shrinks largely during sintering, and hence, the resulting monolithic ceramic substrate may warp in some cases. In order to solve this problem, the constraining green layers, which are in contact with the main surfaces of the individual base green layers, have different thicknesses so that a relatively thicker constraining green layer is in contact with a relatively thicker base green layer, and a relatively thinner constraining green layer is in contact with a relatively thinner base green. |
