Resonant tag and method of manufacturing the same

摘要

A resonant tag is manufactured in the manner described below: a conductive thin film is formed to a predetermined thickness on two surfaces of an insulating thin film. Thereafter, a conductive pattern, composed of an inductor element and a capacitor element corresponding to a resonant frequency of a resonant circuit, is printed on a surface of one of the conductive thin films, and a conductive pattern, composed of a capacitor element corresponding to the resonant frequency of the resonant circuit, is printed on a surface of the other insulating thin film at a position which faces the capacitor element formed on one of the conductive thin films using an ink which resists etching. A non-printed portion of the conductive thin films is removed by etching to form a resonant circuit pattern. Thereafter, a portion of the insulating thin film, which corresponds to the capacitor element pattern, is thinned to a desired thickness by pressing a heating/pressing member heated to a predetermined temperature against that portion under a predetermined pressure for a predetermined period of time.
