    Abstract: A magnetic field detection apparatus includes a magnetoresistive effect element and a helical coil. The magnetoresistive effect element includes a magnetoresistive effect film extending in a first axis direction. The helical coil includes a parallel connection including first and second parts extending in a second axis direction inclined with respect to the first axis direction. The first and second parts are adjacent to each other in a third axis direction and coupled to each other in parallel. The helical coil is wound around the magnetoresistive effect element while extending along the third axis direction. The magnetoresistive effect film overlaps the first and second parts in a fourth axis direction orthogonal to the second and third axis directions. The helical coil is configured to be supplied with a current and thereby configured to generate an induction magnetic field to be applied to the magnetoresistive effect film in the third axis direction.

    Abstract: A magnetic field detection apparatus includes a magnetoresistive effect element and a coil. The coil includes first and second tier parts opposed to each other in a first axis direction, with the magnetoresistive effect element interposed therebetween. The coil is configured to be supplied with a current and thereby configured to generate an induction magnetic field to be applied to the magnetoresistive effect element in a second axis direction. The first tier part includes first conductors extending in a third axis direction, arranged in the second axis direction and coupled in parallel to each other. The second tier part includes a second conductor or second conductors extending in the third axis direction, the second conductors being arranged in the second axis direction and coupled in parallel to each other. The first conductors each have a width smaller than a width of the second conductor or each of the second conductors.

    Abstract: A thermally assisted magnetic recording head has a waveguide that propagates laser light as propagating light; a main pole that has a first end portion on an air bearing surface (ABS) facing a magnetic recording medium and that emits a magnetic flux to the magnetic recording medium; a metal layer that is positioned between the main pole and the waveguide, that extends from a second end portion positioned on the ABS in a height direction, that generates surface plasmons from the propagating light, and that generates near-field light (NF light) from the surface plasmons at the second end portion; and a dielectric body layer that is surrounded by the metal layer and that extends from a third end portion positioned on the ABS in a height direction.

    Abstract: A thermal assisted magnetic recording head has a magnetic head slider having an air bearing surface that is opposite to a magnetic recording medium, a core that can propagate laser light as propagating light, a plasmon generator that includes a generator front end surface facing the air bearing surface, and a main pole facing the air bearing surface, and a laser light generator that supplies the laser light to the core. The plasmon generator generates near-field light (NF light) at the generator front end surface to heat the magnetic recording medium. The main pole includes a main pole end surface that faces the air bearing surface and that is positioned in the vicinity of the generator front end surface, and emits a magnetic flux to the magnetic recording medium from the main pole end surface. At least a portion of the laser light that is not coupled with the plasmon generator thermally deforms the air bearing surface so that a part of the air bearing surface positioned closer to the leading side than the generator front end surface and the main pole end surface in the down track direction protrudes toward the magnetic recording medium.

    Abstract: An MR element includes a first magnetic layer, a second magnetic layer, and a nonmagnetic layer disposed between the first magnetic layer and the second magnetic layer. The first magnetic layer has a magnetic shape anisotropy set in a first reference direction, and has a magnetization whose direction changes depending on an external magnetic field, the magnetization being oriented in a first magnetization direction in a state where the external magnetic field is not applied. The second magnetic layer has a magnetic shape anisotropy set in a second reference direction, and has a magnetization whose direction changes depending on the external magnetic field, the magnetization being oriented in a second magnetization direction in a state where the external magnetic field is not applied.

    Abstract: A magnetic field detection apparatus includes a magnetoresistive effect element and a conductor. The magnetoresistive effect element includes a magnetoresistive effect film extending in a first axis direction and including a first end part, a second end part, and an intermediate part between the first and second end parts. The conductor includes a first part and a second part that each extend in a second axis direction inclined with respect to the first axis direction. The conductor is configured to be supplied with a current and thereby configured to generate an induction magnetic field to be applied to the magnetoresistive effect film in a third axis direction orthogonal to the second axis direction. The first part and the second part respectively overlap the first end part and the second end part in a fourth axis direction orthogonal to both of the second axis direction and the third axis direction.
