    摘要: A magnetic head includes: a pole layer including a track width defining portion and a wide portion; and an encasing layer disposed on a bottom forming layer and having a groove that accommodates the pole layer. The groove includes a first portion for accommodating at least part of the track width defining portion, and a second portion for accommodating at least part of the wide portion. A manufacturing method for the magnetic head includes: the step of etching a nonmagnetic layer that will become the encasing layer later, such that an initial groove including the first portion is formed in the nonmagnetic layer; the step of forming an initial groove mask covering the first portion; and a second etching step for etching the nonmagnetic layer so as to complete the groove. When the second etching step starts, a portion of the top surface of the bottom forming layer located in a region in which the second portion is to be formed is covered with the nonmagnetic layer or the initial groove mask.

    摘要: A method of forming a magnetic head comprises the steps of: selectively exposing through the use of a photomask a photoresist layer unpatterned; forming a pattern for forming a pole layer by developing the photoresist layer after the exposure; and forming the pole layer through the use of the pattern. The photomask includes first to third regions. The first region has such a perimeter that a projection image thereof is shaped along a perimeter of an ideal shape of the top surface of the pole layer. The second region touches the perimeter of the first region, and is located outside the first region. The third region is located inside the first region without touching the perimeter of the first region. The third region suppresses deviation of the pole layer from its desired shape which may be caused by the effect of light reflected while the photoresist layer is exposed.

    摘要: A method of manufacturing magnetic heads comprises the step of: fabricating a magnetic head substructure by forming components of a plurality of magnetic heads on a single substrate, wherein a plurality of rows of pre-head portions that will be the respective magnetic heads later are aligned in the substructure; and fabricating the magnetic heads by separating the pre-head portions from one another through cutting the substructure. In the substructure first resistor elements and second resistor elements are formed. Each of the first resistor elements has a resistance that varies depending on the location of an end of an MR element located in a medium facing surface along the direction orthogonal to the medium facing surface. Each of the second resistor elements has a resistance that varies depending on the location of an end face of a track width defining portion located in the medium facing surface along the direction orthogonal to the medium facing surface. The medium facing surfaces are formed while monitoring the resistance values of the first and second resistor elements.

One of the widths of the first and second indicators decreases while the other increases with shifts in position along the direction orthogonal to the medium facing surfaces.

    摘要: A pole-layer-encasing layer made of a nonmagnetic material is disposed on an underlying layer made of a nonmagnetic conductive material. The encasing layer has a groove that penetrates. A pole layer is disposed in the groove. The pole layer is formed by plating through feeding a current to the underlying layer. A polishing stopper layer made of a nonmagnetic conductive material is disposed on the top surface of the encasing layer. The polishing stopper layer indicates the level at which polishing for controlling the thickness of the pole layer is stopped. The polishing stopper layer has an opening that penetrates, and the edge of the opening is located directly above the edge of the groove located in the top surface of the encasing layer.

    摘要: The invention is directed to improvement of a write element of a thin film magnetic head. In said write element, a first coil and a second coil are provided on a first insulating film formed on one surface of a first magnetic film and surround in a spiral form a back gap portion. A second yoke portion in the upper position comprises a wide portion, a narrow portion and a sloping flare portion. The wide portion has a flat surface and is connected to the first magnetic film by a back gap portion at the rear of the medium-facing surface. The narrow portion forms the second pole portion and the surface of the narrow portion being at a lower position than the surface of the wide portion. The sloping flare portion extends from the narrow portion to the wide portion, gradually increasing in width and its surface sloping upward away from the surface of the narrow portion to the surface of the wide portion.

    摘要: A magnetic head includes a pole layer, and an encasing layer having a groove that accommodates the pole layer. A manufacturing method for the magnetic head includes the steps of forming a nonmagnetic layer that will later undergo formation of the groove therein and will thereby become the encasing layer; forming the groove in the nonmagnetic layer so that the nonmagnetic layer becomes the encasing layer; and forming the pole layer such that the pole layer is accommodated in the groove of the encasing layer. The nonmagnetic layer is formed of Al2O3. The step of forming the groove in the nonmagnetic layer includes the step of taper-etching the nonmagnetic layer by reactive ion etching with an etching gas containing at least BCl3 and N2 among BCl3, Cl2 and N2.
