Print head with thermomechanical actuator
Abstract:
A print head using a thermomechanical actuator is capable of improving ejection efficiency and improving print quality by stabilizing an ejecting direction. In a print head for ejecting droplets with the thermomechanical actuator having a first layer and a second layer, the first layer includes a heat generation layer and the second layer includes a plurality of dielectric layers. The thermomechanical actuator includes a fixed end and a free end. The plurality of dielectric layers are laminated on a droplet ejecting side in relation to the heat generation layer and between the fixed end and the free end at the same film thickness. A linear expansion coefficient of the dielectric layer of the fixed end side is smaller than that of the heat generation layer. A linear expansion coefficient of the dielectric layer of the free end side is larger than that of the heat generation layer.
