Abstract

In an ink jet head having: a nozzle plate in which a plurality of nozzle openings are formed; a flow path substrate comprising a reservoir to which ink is externally supplied, and a plurality of pressure chambers which are connected to the reservoir via an ink supply port and which respectively communicate with the nozzle openings; an elastic film which pressurizes ink in the pressure chambers; and driving means located at a position opposing the respective pressure chambers for causing the elastic film to conduct flexural deformation, the pressure chambers are arranged in a single-crystal silicon substrate of a (110) lattice plane and along a <112> lattice orientation.
