A trench is formed in a silicon substrate, and an epitaxial film is formed on the substrate and in the trench. After a part of the epitaxial film formed around an opening portion of the trench is etched, another epitaxial film is formed on the substrate and in the trench. Accordingly, the trench can be filled with the epitaxial films completely. Then, the surface of the substrate is flattened.

A developer cartridge capable of being fitted to the toner replenishing opening of a developer storage hopper has a sealing member for sealing the toner therein that is bonded to the rim of its replenishing opening to be opposed to the opening of the developer storage hopper. The bottom face of this developer cartridge which constitutes the bottom for supporting the toner stored therein is inclined upwards in the stripping direction of the sealing member, whereby the supplied amount of the toner at the stripping start of the sealing member is regulated when the sealing member is stripped so that the toner can be uniformly supplied across the full length of the developer storage hopper with respect to the stripping direction of the sealing member.

A stack type semiconductor laser device, which has a large overlapped area of beam patterns made by laser beams irradiated from a plurality of semiconductor laser elements, is disclosed. A first semiconductor laser element is formed on an N-type semiconductor substrate and is bonded to a surface of a pedestal at the side of an N-type electrode thereof through a solder layer. On the other hand, a second semiconductor laser element is differently formed on a P-type semiconductor substrate, and an N-type electrode thereof is bonded to a P-type electrode of the first semiconductor laser element through a solder layer in such a way that the laser beam irradiation planes of both semiconductor laser elements face in the same direction.

A magneto-resistive (MR) head has an MR layer in a space formed by shield layers by providing a distance enough to protect magnetic flux, flowing through the MR layer from a recording medium through a gap formed by the shield layers, from leaking out to the shield layers. A flux guide is provided between the MR layer and the gap, and has an end magnetically connected to the MR, extending over an effective area of the MR head, and another end having a width a little narrower than a width of track of the recording medium. A side of the MR layer, opposite to the side connected with the flux guide layer is placed in a narrow space formed at a corner of the space. Magnetic flux leaked from the gap due to a sense current flowing through the MR layer is eliminated by making a current flow through a recording coil layer or through an electrically conductive layer placed in the space.

An airflow sensor including a micro-heater having a film structure, which can reduce a warpage of the film structure even when a thick ness of the film structure to improve a mechanical strength thereof. An airflow sensor is provided with a monocrystalline silicon substrate having a hollow portion therein; a thin film heater portion as a micro-heater arranged above the hollow portion; and a temperature sensor. The thin film heater portion has a laminated structure of a lower thin film, a heater layer, and an upper thin film. The lower and the upper thin film respectively have a tensile stress film and a compressive stress film laminated with the tensile stress film, and are symmetry laminated with respect to the heater layer. The tensile stress film is made up of a Si3N4 film having a great moisture-proof characteristic; and the compressive stress film is made up of a SiO2 film having a great adhesion. Since these stress films cancel their internal stress each other, the internal stress can be released, and a warpage moment can be cancelled so that a warpage of the whole film structure can be restricted. Therefore, the mechanical strength can be improved even if the thickness of the film is increased.

A cap device for an ink jet recording head includes a cap, a cap holder, a cylinder, a piston, and a cylinder driver. The cylinder includes therewithin a pump chamber of which the volume increases when the cylinder advances and decreases when the cylinder retracts, an ink discharge path, and communication control unit. When the cylinder advances to increase the volume of the pump chamber, the communication control unit disconnects the pump chamber from the ink discharge path, and when the cylinder retracts to decrease the volume of the pump chamber, the communication control unit connects the pump chamber with the ink discharge path. The piston includes an ink flow path of which the front end communicates with the through-hole and the rear end communicates with the pump chamber within the cylinder when the cylinder advances to reach a predetermined position.
