摘要:
A thin-film magnetic head is capable of securing an insulating property and minimizing the projection of a recording element section due to heat expansion. The thin-film magnetic head includes a pair of magnetic layers disposed with a predetermined gap therebetween on a surface facing a recording medium. The layers are connected to each other along an inner part in a height direction from the medium-facing surface. A spiral recording coil is disposed between the pair of magnetic layers and wound around a connecting portion of the pair of magnetic layers. The recording coil includes a dense coil portion formed with a pitch smaller than that of the inner part in the height direction so as to be closer to the medium-facing surface than the connecting portion. An organic insulating layer is locally formed to fill coil gaps of the dense coil portion, and coil gaps other than those of the dense coil portion are filled with an inorganic insulating layer.

A thin-film magnetic head which can locally project a reproduction element toward a recording medium and a method of manufacturing the thin-film magnetic head are provided. The thin-film magnetic head includes a reproduction element, a recording element which is stacked on the reproduction element and has a pair of magnetic core layers and a coil layer configured to apply a recording magnetic field to the magnetic core layers, and a heat-emitting member emitting heat by electrification, which causes the reproduction element to project toward the recording medium by thermal expansion. The heat-emitting member is disposed below the coil layer.

A main magnetic pole layer is formed on an insulating layer flattened into a high-flatness surface, and a yoke layer having a large film thickness is formed on the main magnetic pole layer independently of the main magnetic pole. The main magnetic pole layer has a front end surface formed in a shape with a width size gradually increasing in a direction of track width as the front end surface departs farther away from an auxiliary magnetic pole layer. A perpendicular magnetic recording head can be provided which can suppress the occurrence of fringing in a recording pattern, and can form the main magnetic pole layer with high pattern accuracy, and can satisfactorily-introduce a recording magnetic field to a fore end of the main magnetic pole layer.

A method of manufacturing a perpendicular magnetic recording head is provided. The method accurately defines a gap layer. The method includes forming a lower gap layer made of a non-magnetic material on a main magnetic pole layer. An upper gap layer is formed on the lower gap layer, the upper gap layer being made of the non-magnetic material. A resist layer is formed on the upper gap layer, and the resist layer is removed from an end surface. The upper gap layer not covered with the resist layer is removed, while exposing a new film surface by removing a surface oxidation layer of the resist layer. A return path layer is formed by plating on the exposed lower gap layer, the upper gap layer, and the resist layer through the plating underlayer.

A thin film magnetic head suitable for an increase in a packing density and an increase in frequency of a magnetic recorder is provided, while the reliability is maintained, and protrusion of a recording head portion from a surface facing a magnetic disk due to thermal expansion is reduced. In the region between a joint and a recording portion, the spacing dimension between the conductive layers of a first coil adjacent to each other is allowed to be equal to the height dimension of the conductive layer of the first coil, and the space of the first coil is filled in with an inorganic material portion of an insulating layer. Regarding the perimeter and the inside of the first coil, the portion which cannot be filled in with the inorganic material portion of the insulating layer leaving no space is filled in with an organic material portion, so that insulation is provided with reliability, and thermal expansion of the insulating film due to the heat release from the first coil is reduced by an inorganic material unlikely to thermally expand.

In a method for manufacturing a perpendicular magnetic recording head, a groove defined by the inner side surfaces of a first nonmagnetic layer and the top surface of a main magnetic pole layer is formed using the difference in etching rates for dry etching between the main magnetic pole layer and the first nonmagnetic layer. An auxiliary magnetic pole layer is formed on the groove with a nonmagnetic material layer disposed therebetween. A projection integrated with the auxiliary magnetic pole layer is formed in a recess of the nonmagnetic material layer on the groove. This projection extends toward the main magnetic pole layer.

A signal demultiplexer includes serially-connected 2-demultiplexing filter banks, including band-stop filters and down-samplers for culling sampling frequencies of output signals from filters to 1/2. When the 2-demultiplexing filter bank operates on four types of filters, first to fourth filters in an ascending order of frequencies, 2-demultiplexing filter bank is arranged in one of two configurations so that a first filter bank contains at least the first filter or the second filter, or a second filter bank contains at least the third filter or the fourth filter. The filter banks are connected in such a way that signals processed through the first filter are processed by the first 2-demultiplexing filter bank in a next-stage; signals processed through the second filter are processed by the second 2-demultiplexing filter bank in a next-stage. Signals processed through the third filter are processed by the first 2-demultiplexing filter bank in a next-stage; and signals processed through the fourth filter are processed by the second 2-demultiplexing filter bank in a next-stage.
摘要:
A perpendicular magnetic recording head includes an auxiliary magnetic pole layer exposed at a surface facing a recording medium, a main magnetic pole layer deposited on the auxiliary magnetic pole layer with an insulating layer therebetween, a coil layer for applying a recording magnetic field to the auxiliary magnetic pole layer and the main magnetic pole layer, and a connecting layer placed on the auxiliary magnetic pole layer toward the back from the surface facing the recording medium. At the surface facing the recording medium, the upper base of the main magnetic pole layer is wider than the lower base so that the width in the track width direction of the main magnetic pole layer gradually increases with distance from the auxiliary magnetic pole layer. A method for making such a perpendicular magnetic recording head is also disclosed.
