Abstract
The present disclosure provides a thermal print head for achieving fine printing. A thermal print head of the disclosure includes: a substrate, having a substrate main surface and a substrate back surface facing opposite sides in a z direction; a resistor layer, disposed on a side of the substrate main surface and including a plurality of heat generating portions arranged in a main scan direction to generate heat by energization; a wiring layer, disposed on the side of the substrate main surface and including a conduction path for electrically conducting the plurality of heat generating portions; a metal layer, interposed between the substrate and the wiring layer with the resistor layer; and an insulating layer, interposed between the metal layer and the wiring layer with the resistor layer. The conduction path includes the metal layer. The metal layer includes tantalum (Ta).
