Abstract

A voltage nonlinear resistor includes a plurality of N-type ZnO crystal grains, a grain boundary layer, and an oxide grain as a P-type semiconductor. The grain boundary layer is formed between the ZnO crystal grains, and contains at least one kind of oxide of alkaline-earth metal. The oxide grain is disposed between the ZnO crystal grains via the grain boundary layer.
