Method for producing a nozzle plate and nozzle plate

摘要

A method for producing a nozzle plate includes the following steps. A photocuring resin is applied onto a surface of a substrate that includes a nozzle while an ink ejection port of the nozzle being filled with the photocuring resin. Light is irradiated to the photocuring resin from a rear surface of the substrate through the nozzle to form a columnar cured portion. The columnar cured portion includes a head portion and a base portion. The head portion protrudes from the surface of the substrate and has an outer diameter equal to or smaller than an inner diameter of the ink ejection port. The base portion is disposed in the nozzle and has an outer diameter equal to the inner diameter of the ink ejection port. The photocuring resin except for the columnar cured portion is removed. A water-repellent film is formed on the surface of the substrate. <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
