METHOD FOR MAKING A PRINTER HEAD WITH THIN-FILM RESISTOR AND PRINTER HEAD DEVICE Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: ink jet printers.

SUBSTANCE: method includes precipitating resistive layer and conductive layer on insulated substrate, forming a resistive heating element, forming of insulating barrier layer above contour of said conductive layer, forming of gap in said barrier layer, forming of metallic layer being in electrical contact with said conductive layer contour through said gap, having geometry, which opens predetermined portion of said contour of conductive layer, making a layout from metallic layer from said contour of conductive layer through said gap in insulating barrier layer to adjacent portion of said insulated substrate, so that layout from metallic layer on said adjacent portion of said insulating substrate forms a relatively large and flat area, remote from said conductive layer contour, for forming displaced spring contact. After precipitation of resistive layer and conductive layer on insulating substrate, contour of conductive layer is formed first, having a recess, forming later said resistive heating element, and then contour of resistive layer is formed with overlapping of conductive layer contour for value, exceeding precision of combination during lithography process and error of dimensions during etching of resistive layer.

EFFECT: higher quality, higher reliability, higher efficiency.
