The present invention provides an ink jet recording head for use in an ink jet recording device, wherein a water-repellent layer (21) comprising a homogeneous layer of a fluoropolymer is formed on the surface of a nozzle for jetting an ink. This water-repellent layer can be formed as a dense, homogeneous layer through the use of a solvent-soluble fluoropolymer, which enables an ink jet recording head excellent in the water-repellent property, the persistence of the water repellency and the durability.

A spatial light modulator is constructed from a conductive silicon mirror substrate and a glass electrode substrate including sodium, anode-bonded together. The silicon mirror substrate has micromirrors arranged in a matrix, torsion bars coupling these micromirrors in the x-direction, and a frame coupled to both ends of the torsion bars. A glass electrode substrate has a central depression, a rim around the periphery thereof, pillars projecting from within the depression, and electrodes and wiring driving micromirrors formed within the depression in an inclining manner. Both ends of the torsion bars are bonded to the rim of the frame portion, and intermediate portions of the torsion bars are bonded to the pillars. Both ends of the torsion bars are cut away from the frame portion during dicing.
摘要:
A porous structure in which water repellency can be kept for a long term; an ink-jet recording head in which the nozzle surface is superior in water repellency properties, and high printing quality can be maintained for a long term; a method manufacturing such a porous structure and such an ink-jet recording head; and an ink-jet recording apparatus provided with such an ink-jet recording head. In a porous structure (100), recess portions (17) and protrusion portions (18) are formed on the surface of a substrate of the porous structure. The height of the protrusion portions (18) on the surface oft he substrate is uniform. In addition, the recess portions (17) and the protrusion portions (18) are formed to have such a size that a liquid drop (21) does not fall down into the recess portion (17), and can contact with an air layer (20) in the recess portion (17). The porous structure (100) is adopted in the ink ejecting surface except for ink ejecting holes in an ink-jet recording head. The ink-jet recording head is mounted on an ink-jet recording apparatus.
摘要:
An ink jet recording apparatus capable of ejecting ink droplets in which the volume is precisely and easily controlled. The gradient of the pixel to be printed, based on a digital gradient input signal, is provided for printing high resolution gradient images using a low drive voltage in this ink jet head. More specifically, the ink jet recording apparatus of the present invention will include a diaphragm formed at one part of a wall of each independent ejection chamber, with electrodes formed opposite each diaphragm and spaced therefrom at a predetermined gap distance. Ink droplets are selectively ejected from nozzle openings in the ejection chamber by applying a voltage to generate an electrostatic force which momentarily deforms the diaphragm. Moreover, plurality of independent electrodes oppose each diaphragm and a pulse voltage is applied to a predetermined number of electrodes according to a gradient signal to eject ink droplets of a volume determined by the gradient signal.

A mask is disclosed for use in forming a thin-layer pattern of an organic electroluminescence element having high-precision pixels. The mask is manufactured by wet-etching a (100) silicon wafer (single crystal silicon substrate) 1 in a crystal orientation-dependent anisotropic fashion so as to form through-holes 11 having (111)-oriented walls 11a serving as apertures corresponding to a thin-layer pattern to be formed.
摘要:
A structural member in which a super water-repellent function and high durability and scratch assistance can be obtained; and a method of manufacturing such a structural member. A water-repellent structure (100) consisting of appropriate irregularities comprising protrusion portions (18) uniform in height is formed on an external surface. The irregularities (17 and 18) have such dimensions that any droplet should not fall in a recess portion and the droplet is in contact with an air layer (20) in the recess portion (17).
