摘要:
Disclosed herein is a magnetic head for perpendicular recording in which the main magnetic pole has reduced remanent magnetization and is less liable to cause erasure after recording. These characteristic properties were realized by constructing the magnetic head such that the recording magnetic pole and the yoke are separate from each other and the main magnetic pole is formed from a material with a high saturation magnetic flux density and the yoke is formed from a material having a negative magnetostriction constant.

A magnetic recording/reproducing device has an inductive write element provided with a coil and magnetic cores for recording information on a medium, a magnetoresistive read element for transducing a change in a magnetic field leaking from a medium, on which information is recorded, into an electrical signal, a detector for detecting an output signal of the read element, a bias field applying unit for applying a bias field to the read element, and a recording/reproducing operation controller for reproducing information based on an output signal from the read element and for controlling the recording current applying unit based on an inputted signal to record information. The recording/reproducing operation control unit has a stabilizing unit for controlling the bias field applying unit to make an absolute value of the bias field in a state where a magnetic field leaking from the medium is applied to the read element larger than that during a normal reproducing operation.
摘要:
A magnetoresistive effect head which can produce a high reproduced output independently from a strength of a magnetic domain control layer even when an electrode spacing is small, and a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus using the same are provided. A magnetoresistive effect film is formed by a stacked layer of a first ferromagnetic film, a non-magnetic conductive film and a second ferromagnetic film. The second ferromagnetic film is stacked on an antiferromagnetic film, and magnetic domain control layers are arranged on the widthwise opposite sides of the magnetoresistive effect film. A pair of electrodes are arranged on each magnetic domain control layers with the electrode spacing being smaller than the width of the magnetoresistive effect film so that a current flows only in a central area of the magnetoresistive effect film.

Thin film perpendicular magnetic head with a narrow main pole capable of a high recording density in excess of 100 gigabits per square inch and generating a high magnetic recording field exceeding 10 kOe (oersted), while also modified to suppress remanent magnetic fields occurring immediately after writing operation. In a perpendicular magnetic head comprising a main pole, a return path for supplying a magnetic flux to that main pole, and an conductive coil for excitation of the main pole and return path, the main pole has a pole width of 200 nanometers or less, and a magnetic multilayer made up of a high saturation flux density layer and low saturation flux density layer, the low saturation flux density layer has a thickness within 0.5 to 5 nanometers, the high saturation flux density layer has a thickness from 10 to 50 nanometers for suppressing remanent magnetization and preventing erasing after writing by utilizing a closed magnetic domain structure in the pole.

There is provided a perpendicular magnetic recording and reproducing system in which the overwrite erase ratio of a perpendicular magnetic head has been improved to prevent the deterioration of an overwrite property. In the perpendicular magnetic head, a third magnetic pole composed of a soft magnetic layer is formed on the leading side of a recording magnetic pole via a non-magnetic layer, thereby reducing magnetic interference from magnetization on a medium with the recording magnetic pole and preventing the deterioration of the overwrite property.

There is provided an angle sensor and angle detection device of high output and high accuracy with a wide operating temperature range. First through eighth sensor units 511, 522, 523, 514, 531, 542, 543 and 534 are produced from spin valve magnetoresistive films that use a self-pinned type ferromagnetic pinned layer comprising two layers of ferromagnetic films that are strongly and anti-ferromagnetically coupled. The respective sensor units are produced via the formation and patterning of thin-films magnetized at angles that differ by 90°, and the formation of insulation films. By using, for the ferromagnetic films, CoFe and FeCo films that have similar Curie temperatures to make the difference in magnetization amount be zero, high immunity to external magnetic fields, a broad adaptive temperature range, and high output are realized.
