摘要:
In a magnetic recording medium comprising a non-magnetic substrate and a magnetic layer of Co or Co-Ni in the form of a continuous thin film on the substrate, the magnetic layer has oxygen-rich sub-layers at its surfaces adjacent to and remote from the substrate. The oxygen-rich sub-layers are produced by injecting energy particles containing oxygen to the surface of the substrate during the initial and final stages of formation of the magnetic layer.

A process for producing a magnetic recording medium which comprises forming on a non-magnetic substrate a magnetic thin layer composed of columnar crystal particles comprising Co, or Co and Ni and/or Cr by vapor/depositing the metal atoms at an angle of incidence of at least 20.degree. relative to the normal line of the principal plane of the substrate, and then forcibly oxidizing the magnetic thin layer by electrochemical treatment to form an oxide layer on the surface of the columnar crystal particles of the magnetic thin layer, and thereby to form a magnetic layer.

A gap between a main pole and auxiliary pole composing a thin film magnetic head having a microwave assisted function of the present invention is filled with a nonmagnetic dielectric layer to embed a microwave radiator. The nonmagnetic dielectric layer has an inclined surface at a end on a side of an opposing medium surface by which the microwave radiated from the microwave radiator to be bent toward the main pole, whereby the microwave magnetic field generated from the microwave generator can be gathered immediately below the main pole, further improving the microwave assisted effect.

A method for forming an NiCr seed layer based bottom spin valve sensor element having a synthetic antiferromagnet pinned (SyAP) layer and a capping layer comprising either a single specularly reflecting nano-oxide layer (NOL) or a bi-layer comprising a non-metallic layer and a specularly reflecting nano-oxide layer and the sensor element so formed. The method of producing these sensor elements provides elements having higher GMR ratios and lower resistances than elements of the prior art.
摘要:
A method for forming a bottom spin valve sensor having a synthetic antiferromagnetic pinned (SyAP) layer, antiferromagnetically coupled to a pinning layer, in which one of the layers of the SyAP is formed as a three layer lamination that contains a specularly reflecting oxide layer of FeTaO.

This invention is directed to a ferromagnetic tunnel junction, an MR element and a magnetic head. A ferromagnetic tunnel junction is constituted by sequentially laminating a first ferromagnetic film, an insulating film and a second ferromagnetic film. These are laminated on an appropriate insulating substrate. The present invention is characterized in that the barrier potential of the insulating film is set within a range of 0.5 to 3 eV. A ferromagnetic tunnel junction with which a high MR ratio can be achieved with good reproduction characteristics is provided.

A microwave assisted magnetic head of the present invention includes: at least two or more auxiliary coils that are arranged in a periphery of a writing main pole; and microwave current supply means that applies microwave currents to the at least two or more auxiliary coils. The at least two or more auxiliary coils respectively include linear body parts linearly arranged on an ABS side, two of the linear body parts of the at least two or more auxiliary coils are arranged in a substantially orthogonal positional relationship, and the microwave current supply means is configured such that the microwave current supply means changes phase differences of the microwave currents applied respectively to the at least two or more auxiliary coils. Therefore, the microwave current can be easily controlled, and thus, a circularly polarized magnetic field with high magnetization inversion efficiency can be generated as an assistance magnetic field.
