  • Removing segment of a metal conductor while forming printheads
    Patent number: 10166778
    Abstract: An example of a method of forming a printhead includes forming first and second resistors over a first dielectric, forming a first portion of a second dielectric over the first and second resistors and a second portion of the second dielectric over an exposed inclined surface of the first dielectric in a region between the first and second resistors, forming a metal conductor over the first and second portions of the second dielectric, and removing an inclined segment of the metal conductor from an inclined surface of the second portion of the second dielectric to expose the inclined surface of the second portion of the second dielectric.
    Type: Grant
