摘要:
A piezoelectric ink-jet printhead that uses a metallic layer and a thick film layer with a slot hole therein instead of a ceramic vibration plate and an ink layer. The piezoelectric layer and the upper electrode layer are formed inside the ink cavity so that overall thickness of the print head is reduced. To form the ink-jet print head, a metallic layer and a lower electrode layer are sequentially formed over a substrate. A patterned piezoelectric layer and an upper electrode layer are sequentially formed over the lower electrode layer. A patterned thick film layer with a slot hole therein is formed over the metallic layer. The thick film layer and the metallic layer together form a cavity that encloses the piezoelectric layer and the upper electrode layer. A nozzle plate having a nozzle thereon is attached to the thick film layer. The nozzle plate, the thick film layer and the metallic layer together form an ink cavity. The hole in the nozzle is continuous with the ink cavity.

摘要:
A method of forming a nozzle plate of an inkjet print head. A silicon chip is provided with an activated device and a first film is formed on the silicon chip, with a first opening corresponding to the activated device. Then, a second film is formed on the first film. Next, a photoresist layer is formed on the second film, such that the photoresist layer has a second opening corresponding to the first opening. Next, the second film under the second opening of the photoresist layer is etched to form a via in the second film passing through the first opening.
