摘要:
A conductive thin film has first and second surfaces and at least one opening extending through from the first surface to the second surface. At least on one of the first and second surfaces, first and second periodic surface patterns having different period lengths are provided. The period length of the second periodic surface pattern is substantially equal to an odd integral multiple of a half of the period length of the first periodic surface pattern. With this, surface plasmon polaritons excited by the first periodic surface pattern undergo odd-order Bragg reflection by the second periodic surface pattern. As a result, the intensity of the light falling on the first surface and transmitted to the second surface through the opening is increased with high efficiency.

A recording head is a magnetic head in which ends on one side of opposed first and second magnetic cores form a recording gap, said other ends form a magnetic joint, coils insulated by an insulating material are provided between said first and second magnetic cores, magnetic fluxes of said first and second magnetic cores excited by said coils leak from said recording gap so that recording onto a recording medium is carried out. In said recording head, a distance from said end of said recording gap close to said magnetic medium to a contact point of said magnetic joint (hereinafter, yoke length) is not more than 20 μm. A magnetic recording/reproduction apparatus has this head.

An MR head in which a spin-valve device unit is formed into a horizontal shape and an anti-ferromagnetic layer is not required, is provided. The spin-valve device unit includes a first ferromagnetic layer, one and another permanent magnetic layers arranged on both end portions of the first ferromagnetic layer and creating a magnetic path from one of the end portions of the first ferromagnetic layer toward the other thereof. A second ferromagnetic layer is provided above the first ferromagnetic layer through a non-magnetic conductive layer and a soft magnetic layer is provided above the second ferromagnetic layer through a non-magnetic layer. The both end portions of the second ferromagnetic layer are designed to contact with outer end portions of the permanent magnet layers, respectively. Surfaces of the permanent magnet layers are perpendicular to the surface of a magnetic storage medium and to the magnetization direction thereof.

A thin film magnetic head has individual coils series-connected to one another and formed with three connecting terminals selectively connectable to an external driver to effect magnetic reading and writing operation. The magnetic head has 2n (n being an integer of not less than 1) spiral patterns formed by a selective plating method, n spiral patterns out of the 2n spiral patterns being connected in series so that a first connecting terminal and an intermediate connecting terminal are formed to thus give a first coil, the remaining n spiral patterns out of the 2n spiral patterns being connected in series so that one end thereof is connected to the intermediate connecting terminal and the other end serves as a second connecting terminal to thus give a second coil, wherein the 2n spiral patterns are formed on n layers and each layer has two spiral patterns, one of which is a component of the first coil and the other of which is a component of the second coil.
