An inkjet printhead and a manufacturing method thereof. The inkjet printhead
includes
a substrate, a substantially cylindrical ink chamber storing ink and formed in
an upper portion of the substrate, and a manifold supplying ink to the ink chamber
in a bottom portion of the substrate, a channel-forming layer disposed between
the ink chamber and the manifold and having an ink channel communicating between
the ink chamber and the manifold, a nozzle plate stacked on the substrate and having
a nozzle at a location corresponding to the central part of the ink chamber, a
heater formed to surround the nozzle of the nozzle plate, and electrodes electrically
connected to the heater to supply current to the heater. Therefore, the quantity
of ink stored in an ink chamber can be increased. Also, when bubbles grow, the
cylindrical ink chamber confines an ink flow area to ink ejectors, thereby reducing
a back flow of the ink. Further, the quantity of ink supplied to the ink chamber
can be adjusted by varying the number of ink channels formed in the channel-forming
layer, thereby improving frequency characteristics of the inkjet printhead.
