Thick film type thermal head and thermal recording device

摘要

A thick film type thermal head produced by consecutively forming, on an insulator substrate, a heat-resistant layer, an electrode, a heating resistor and a protective layer, wherein the protective layer comprises an electrically insulating protective layer covering the heating resistor and that portion of the electrically insulating protective layer which corresponds to a medium comprises a heat-diffusing coating having a high thermal conductivity over the electrically insulating protective layer.
