A liquid dispenser includes a substrate and a plurality of liquid-dispensing portions, arranged on the substrate, including at least one liquid chamber for storing liquid, one nozzle, and one heating element, wherein the heating elements are energized to heat liquid stored in the corresponding liquid chambers to eject a droplet of the liquid from the corresponding nozzles; the heating elements and the liquid chambers have a protective layer and an insulating layer therebetween; each heating element, the insulating layer, the protective layer, and each liquid chamber are arranged in that order; the insulating layer isolates the protective layer from the heating elements; and the protective layer comprises an inorganic material, protects the heating elements, has a strip shape so as to cover some of the plurality of heating elements adjacent to each other, and has slits each disposed between the heating elements. A printer includes such a liquid dispenser.

The present invention relates to a liquid jetting head, a liquid jetting apparatus, and a method of manufacturing the liquid jetting head. The invention can be particularly adopted to an ink jet printer of a thermal system. A treatment for building up a coating type insulating material film and a treatment for substantially removing the insulating material film in the forming regions of heating elements by etching are repeated at least a plurality of times, whereby deterioration of the heating elements can be prevented even in the case where generation of steps is prevented by an SOG film.

摘要:
In a method and an apparatus for ejecting liquid, the processing accuracy of an ejection unit for ejecting ink can be easily increased and the variations in the volume of ink drops, the ejection angle thereof, etc., can be reduced even when dust is mixed in ink. In addition, a reduction in an ink-supply speed at which ink is supplied to an ink ejection unit can be prevented. An ink ejection apparatus includes a plurality of heating units (13) provided on a base member (11), ink cells for pressurizing ink with energy generated by the heating units (13), and nozzles (17) having ejection holes for ejecting the ink which is pressurized in the ink cells. Each of the nozzles (17) is disposed above each of the heating units (13). In addition, first open sides of the nozzles (17) which face the heating units (13) serve as ink inlets (17b) and second open sides of the nozzles (17) serve as the ejection holes (17a), so that inner spaces of the nozzles (17) serve as the ink cells, the ink cells not being provided separately.
