  • Publication number: 20130215185
    Abstract: A method for assembling a printhead such as an ink jet printhead can include the use of a laser to bond two or more printhead layers together. In an embodiment, a laser beam is directed through a transparent layer to an energy-absorbing layer, where the energy-absorbing layer is melted such that after removal of the laser beam the melted layer solidifies to adhere the energy-absorbing layer to the transparent layer. In another embodiment, heating the energy-absorbing layer melts the transparent layer to adhere the energy-absorbing layer to the transparent layer after removal of the laser beam. The laser transmission lamination process described can result in a fluid-tight seal which requires less processing time and materials over an adhesive-based process.

  • Publication number: 20130215186
    Abstract: A method for assembling a printhead such as an ink jet printhead can include the use of an ultrasonic bonding process to bond two or more printhead layers together. In an embodiment, an ultrasonic frequency is directed to an interface between a first layer and a second layer to generate heat at the interface. In an embodiment, the heat melts at least one of the first layer and the second layer, and the layers are cooled to cure the melted layer. In another embodiment, the heat generated using the ultrasonic frequency cures an adhesive layer between the first layer and the second layer. The ultrasonic lamination process described can result in a fluid-tight seal which requires less processing time and materials over an adhesive-based process.

  • Publication number: 20130120505
    Abstract: A print head including a jet stack can be formed using semiconductor device manufacturing techniques. A blanket metal layer, a blanket piezoelectric element layer, and a blanket conductive layer can be formed over a semiconductor substrate such as a semiconductor wafer or wafer section. The piezoelectric element layer and the blanket conductive layer can be patterned to provide a plurality of transducer piezoelectric elements and top electrodes respectively, while the metal layer forms a bottom electrode for the plurality of transducers. Subsequently, the semiconductor substrate can be patterned to form a body plate for the print head jet stack. Forming a print head jet stack using semiconductor device manufacturing techniques can provide a high resolution device with small feature sizes.
