A liquid ejecting head suppresses erosion of silicon substrates by liquid, and whereby suppresses leakage of liquid, discharging failure of liquid droplets, and peeling-off of laminated substrates. The liquid ejecting head includes at least a nozzle plate on which nozzle openings for discharging liquid are provided, and a flow path formation substrate on which a pressure generation chamber communicating with the nozzle openings is provided. The nozzle plate is formed with a silicon substrate. At least the flow path formation substrate and the nozzle plate are bonded to each other after providing a tantalum oxide film formed by atomic layer deposition on the entire surfaces including a bonded surface.
