    Abstract: A micro fluid actuator includes an orifice layer, a flow channel layer, a substrate, a chamber layer, a vibration layer, a lower electrode layer, a piezoelectric actuation layer and an upper electrode layer, which are stacked sequentially. An outflow aperture, a plurality of first inflow apertures and a second inflow aperture are formed in the substrate by an etching process. A storage chamber is formed in the chamber layer by the etching process. An outflow opening and an inflow opening are formed in the orifice layer by the etching process. An outflow channel, an inflow channel and a plurality of columnar structures are formed in the flow channel layer by a lithography process. By providing driving power which have different phases to the upper electrode layer and the lower electrode layer, the vibration layer is driven to displace in a reciprocating manner, so as to achieve fluid transportation.

    Abstract: A wafer structure is disclosed and includes a chip substrate and an inkjet chip. The chip substrate is a silicon substrate fabricated by a semiconductor process on a wafer of 12 inches. The inkjet chips are formed on the chip substrate by the semiconductor process and diced into the inkjet chip. The inkjet chip includes plural ink-drop generators generated by the semiconductor process on the chip substrate. Each of the plurality of ink-drop generators includes a nozzle. A diameter of the nozzle is in a range between 0.5 micrometers and 10 micrometers. A volume of an inkjet drop discharged from the nozzle is in a range between 1 femtoliter and 3 picoliters. The ink-drop generators form plural longitudinal axis array groups having a pitch and plural horizontal axis array groups having a central stepped pitch equal to or less than 1/600 inches.
