Liquid ejection head and liquid ejection apparatus

A liquid ejection head for ejecting a liquid comprising:

• a flow path substrate through which a liquid flows;
• and
• a first plate and a second plate attached to locations facing each other and interposing the flow path substrate therebetween, wherein
• the first plate includes a nozzle,
• the second plate includes a pressure chamber for generating a fluid pressure fluctuation, the pressure chamber being extended in an X-direction,
• the nozzle and the pressure chamber communicate with each other through a first communication path which is a passing-through portion provided in the flow path substrate, the first communication path being extended in a Z-direction that crosses to the X-direction, and
• the first plate and the second plate close an opening of a second communication path which is a passing-through portion provided in the flow path substrate, the passing-through portion configuring the second communication path so as to be separate from the passing-through portion configuring the first communication path, the second communication path being extended in the Z-direction.
