Abstract: A liquid ejecting head includes: a nozzle array including nozzles via which liquid is to be discharged and which are arrayed in a first direction; a nozzle passage that leads to a nozzle and extends in a second direction intersecting the first direction; a first pressure chamber; a second pressure chamber disposed adjacent to the first pressure chamber in the first direction; a first communicating passage via which the first pressure chamber communicates with an interior of the nozzle passage and which extends in a third direction orthogonal to the first and second directions; and a second communicating passage via which the second pressure chamber communicates with the interior of the nozzle passage and which extends in the third direction. As viewed from the second direction, an inner wall surface of the first communicating passage positioned on a side of the second communicating passage includes a first inclined surface that extends in a fourth direction intersecting the first and third directions.

Abstract: A liquid ejecting head is provided. A lower electrode layer of the liquid ejecting head is divided into separate lower electrodes corresponding to respective pressure chamber spaces. An upper electrode layer is a continuous electrode. Each of the separate lower electrodes has (i) a wide portion whose width is smaller than the width of a pressure chamber space and (ii) a narrow portion whose width is smaller than the wide portion. The wide portion is positioned in a region that corresponds to the opening of the pressure chamber space and includes the center, when seen in the direction of the length of the pressure chamber space, of the pressure chamber space, and the narrow portion continuously extends from the wide portion to a region that corresponds to outside of the opening of the pressure chamber space in the direction of the length of the pressure chamber space.
