Abstract: A color filter having shade portions and colored light-transmittable portions on a substrate, said color filter being characterized in that the light-transmittable portions are colored with ink dots, and a difference between a maximum value and a minimum value of light transmittance in a thickness direction in the light-transmittable portions is 20% or less.

Abstract: Provided is a color filter which comprises a substrate and a resin layer on the substrate, the resin layer containing a plurality of colored portions of different colors and non-colored portions.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a color filter comprising a base equipped with light-transmitting areas, and an ink-receiving layer provided on the base and equipped with colored light-transmitting areas on the light-transmitting areas of the base, wherein the ink-receiving layer comprises a homopolymer of a monomer having a structural unit represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 denotes hydrogen or a methyl group, and R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are, independently of each other, hydrogen or an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, or its copolymer with one or more other vinyl monomers.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a color filter repair method which can easily repair defects of a color filter. In order to achieve this object, there is provided a color filter repair method of repairing a defective portion such as a color omission or color irregularity of a filter element of a color filter formed by arranging filter elements colored in predetermined colors on a transparent substrate in the form of a predetermined pattern, wherein the defective portion is repaired by discharging a coloring material of a predetermined color onto the defective portion using an ink-jet head capable of discharging coloring materials of different colors.

Abstract: A color filter is provided which has picture elements arranged adjacently on a substrate, each picture element comprising a red segmental layer, a green segmental layer, and a blue segmental layer, wherein at least one color of the segmental layers is colored with a dye, and at least one of the other colors of the segmental layers is colored with a pigment.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a color filter manufacturing method which can make the color density of a filter uniform. In order to achieve the object, according to the present invention, there is provided a color filter manufacturing method for a color filter manufactured by forming and arranging a large number of colored filter elements on a transparent substrate, including the first discharge step of discharging a colored droplet of a first volume onto each filter element formation region on the substrate so as to form each of the filter elements, and the second discharge step of discharging a droplet of a second volume smaller than the first volume onto a position on the substrate where the droplet of the first volume has been discharged.

Abstract: An ink jet head having a plurality of ink flow path walls forming a plurality of ink pathways by joining said plurality of ink flow path walls to a substrate for an ink jet head, said plurality of ink flow path walls being tightly bonded to said substrate without being debonded even in the case of continuously operating the ink jet head over a long period of time using highly alkaline ink.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a process for producing a color filter, comprising the steps of: providing a plurality of color inks having different color properties from each other and a black ink; and ejecting the inks directly on a base or on a composition provided on the base using an ink-jet system to form a colored pattern, wherein a black matrix is formed with a black ink having a polarity opposite to that of the color inks.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a color filter which comprises arranging colorants on a substrate by using inks capable of curing by the application of energy, said method comprising (1) a step of imparting, to the substrate, the inks capable of curing by the application of energy to form colored portions, (2) a step of applying the energy to the substrate to partially cure the colored portions, (3) a step of forming an energy-curable resin layer on the partially cured colored portions, and (4) a step of curing the partially cured colored portions and the resin layer by the application of the energy.

Abstract: A method for producing an ink jet head substrate with an ink passage communicated to an ink discharge opening comprises the steps of exposing a positive type photosensitive resin on a substrate according to the pattern of the ink passage and developing part of the resin according to the pattern of the ink passage. The remaining resin matching the pattern of the ink passage is then further exposed and developed and the resulting gap in the pattern is filled with material for forming the ink passage. The rest of the resin is then removed to form the ink passage which, because of the multiple exposing and developing steps, provides an ink jet head with an ink passage of high precision.

Abstract: In the preparation of a ink jet recording head by coating positive photoresist containing naphthoquinone diazide on a substrate, patterning the positive photoresist, then coating a photocurable material for liquid path formation, photocuring said material and dissolving the patterned photoresist thereby forming liquid paths, the patterned positive photoresist is subjected to flush exposure and degassing prior to the coating of the liquid path forming material in order to discharge the bubbles from the photoresist and to prevent eventual deformation of said material by the migrating bubbles generated from the positive photoresist.
