U-shape heater
What is U-shape herter?
U-shape is shown in below figures. Its lead pattern has U-shape, but also heater has twin elements. Therefore its patterning resolution became 2 time higher!
Why does Toshiba propose U-shape heater ?
As there are no common pattern, so
- Minimize power loss by common drop to 10%
- Heater line is able to be located near heat sink edge
- Good MP productivity by using large ceramic mother substrate
As the pattern resolution is 2 times higher, so
- Temperature graduation is slight in a heater, so medium damage will be decrease.
- Also graininess will be improved in light density.
