Abstract

A method of manufacturing an ink jet head which discharges ink, comprising: a step of preparing a silicon substrate; a step of forming a membrane having a layer in which a plurality of holes are disposed to constitute a filter mask, and a layer with which a first surface is coated in such a manner that the first surface is not exposed from the plurality of holes on the first surface of the substrate; a step of forming a close contact enhancing layer on the membrane formed on the substrate; a step of forming a channel constituting member on the close contact enhancing layer to constitute a plurality of discharge ports and a plurality of ink channels communicating with the plurality of discharge ports; a step of forming an ink supply port communicating with the plurality of ink channels in the silicon substrate by anisotropic etching from a second surface facing the first surface of the substrate; and a step of forming a filter in a portion of the close contact enhancing layer positioned in an opening of the ink supply port using the layer of the membrane in which a plurality of holes are disposed as the mask.
