Abstract

A manufacturing method, for a liquid discharge head that includes a silicon substrate in which a supply port is formed for supplying a liquid, includes the steps of providing the silicon substrate, a mask layer provided with an opening that corresponds to the supply port being provided on one face of the silicon substrate; forming a groove in the silicon substrate along the shape of the opening in the mask layer; removing, via sandblasting, silicon of the silicon substrate inward of the groove in the silicon substrate; and performing, from the one face, anisotropic etching of the silicon substrate that has been sandblasted, and forming the supply port.
