摘要:
A system for sensing a property of a fluid comprises a fluid channel operable to receive the fluid therein, a flexible arm having a free end positioned within at least a portion of the fluid channel, a fluid actuator disposed sufficiently close to the flexible arm such that actuation of the fluid actuator induces movement of the flexible arm when the fluid is present, and a deflection sensing system operable to quantifiably detect movement of the flexible arm.

Methods of manufacturing a fluid ejection device comprise, in one embodiment, forming filler structures on a substrate and laminating a dry film onto the substrate over the filler structures. The dry film defines a barrier layer around the filler structures and an orifice layer above the filler structures. The filler structures are removed to form voids within the barrier layer.

A method of manufacturing a fluid ejection device includes providing a barrier layer and an orifice layer on a substrate, laminating a layer of photo-resist over a substantially planar surface of the orifice layer, forming an orifice in the orifice layer, and forming a counterbore in the layer of photo-resist, with forming a counterbore in the layer of photo-resist including exposing a portion of the substantially planar surface of the orifice layer within the counterbore.

The described embodiments relate to a slotted substrate and methods of forming same. One exemplary method patterns a hardmask on a first substrate surface sufficient to expose a first area of the first surface and forms a slot portion in the substrate through less than an entirety of the first area of the first surface. The slot portion has a cross-sectional area at the first surface that is less than a cross-sectional area of the first area. After forming the slot portion, the method etches the substrate to remove material from within the first area to form a fluid-handling slot.

Methods and systems for forming compound slots in a substrate are described. In one exemplary implementation, a structure contains a plurality of slots in a substrate. The structure also has a trench in the substrate contiguous with the plurality of slots to form a compound slot.

A method of forming a tapered bore an orifice layer of a photo-resist comprises forming a lens in a surface of a first unexposed portion of the layer and exposing the first unexposed portion through a bore-hole mask to define an exposed portion and a second unexposed portion, wherein the second unexposed portion has a tapered shape. The layer is baked to cross-link the exposed portion and developed to remove the second unexposed portion to form a tapered bore hole. The tapered bore hole has a shape corresponding to the tapered shape.
