Liquid jet recording method

TLDR
In this article, the plane structute of a heating element is formed to be a trapezoid and at both ends thereof electrodes 302 and 303 are provided, where the current density at the part A and part B is changed, a difference can be made in the quantity of the heat per unit time in each part.
Abstract
PURPOSE: To enable the gradation recording by getting the heating element of an electrothermal transducer constructed so that it can produce a heat gradient in an ink jet head wherein the change in pressure by thermal energy is utilized. CONSTITUTION: The plane structute of a heating element 301 is formed to be a trapezoid and at both ends thereof electrodes 302 and 303 are provided. When the current density at the part A and part B is changed, a difference can be made in the quantity of the heat per unit time in each part. In addition, by proividing a heat-accumulating layer 403 and a protecting film 406 having a grade in thickness from an electrode 404 toward an electrode 405 on a substrate 401 as shown in the figure of a cross-sectional structure, the grade is also given to the quantity of the heat applied by the surface of a heating element Δl to the liquid contacting with the surface per a unit time. By this gradient in the quantity of the heat, the quantity of air bubbles formed on the contacting surface of the heating element is changed and thereby the quantity of discharged ink can also be changed.
