LIQUID EJECTION HEAD
First Claim
1. A liquid ejection head having an ejection opening which ejects liquid, comprising:
- an element substrate provided with, on a surface thereof, an element which generates energy utilized for ejecting liquid; and
a resin layer provided on the surface of the element substrate, the resin layer having a wall for a liquid passage communicated with the ejection opening,wherein the element substrate has a first electrode layer and a second electrode layer at the surface side, the first electrode layer is provided in such a manner that the first electrode layer is positioned at a portion corresponding to an end of the resin layer with respect to a direction along the surface, and the second electrode layer electrically connected to the first electrode layer is provided on an upper side of the first electrode layer in such a manner that the second electrode layer is not positioned at the portion.

Abstract
Provided is a liquid ejection head having a structure in which an organic resinous member is formed in contact with a substrate. The substrate includes heat generators for generating heat energy used to eject ink, when being energized, and a metallic line portion for energizing the heat generators. The organic resinous member is provided with ejection openings corresponding to the heat generators. In the liquid ejection head, the substrate and the organic resinous member have an improved adhesion therebetween, and are prevented from being separated from each other. To improve the adhesion, the metallic line portion is cut so that no line portion exists under an end part of the organic resinous member (nozzle formation member). Then, two members of the line portion thus cut are connected to each other through a roundabout line formed under an insulating layer which has a good adhesion to the organic resin.
