摘要:
Formation of magnetic domains in a perpendicularly magnetized medium comprising an underlayer of a soft magnetic layer is prevented by appropriate magnetic domain control in the soft magnetic layer. One method controls magnetic domains of the soft magnetic layer by applying an external magnetic field to the medium. Another method provides a mechanism in the magnetic head for generating a magnetic field to control the magnetic domains of the soft magnetic layer of the medium.

A first magnetic layer is formed upon a non-magnetic substrate, a gap layer is formed upon the first magnetic layer, a conductor coil covered with an insulation layer is formed upon the gap layer, a second magnetic layer is formed upon the gap layer and the insulation layer, a magnetic gap being formed between the first and second magnetic layers at a front portion facing a recording medium, and the second magnetic layer being connected to the first magnetic layer at a back portion. After forming a mask made of metal oxide upon the second magnetic layer, the second magnetic layer, the gap layer, and the first magnetic layer are formed into a predetermined shape respectively at the tip portion by dry etching. Thus, a high performance thin-film magnetic head having the same widths for the first and second magnetic layers is obtained.

A read-write head is capable of suppressing fluctuation on a reproduced waveform caused by repetition of a writing and reading operation, and is capable suppressing noise appearing in the reproduced waveform just after a writing operation is carried out. The read-write head has an upper magnetic core, an upper shield also serving as an lower magnetic core, a lower shield and a magnetoresistive film arranged between the upper shield and the lower shield. The upper shield has a soft magnetic film having a magnitude of anisotropy field of 5 to 30 Oe, or is a multilayer film composed of a high saturation magnetic flux density film and a negative magneto-striction film. The lower shield has a soft magnetic film having a magnitude of anisotropy field of 5 to 30 Oe.
摘要:
In a magnetoresistive head, a domain suppressing layer is formed under each of opposite ends of a magnetoresistive film. The domain suppressing layer is composed of a first ferromagnetic film, an antiferromagnetic film and a second ferromagnetic film which are laminated one over another in this order. Since the spin distribution of the antiferromagnetic film is transmitted to the magnetoresistive film via the second ferromagnetic film, a stable longitudinal bias magnetic field can be achieved, irrespective of the degree of contamination of the surface of the ferromagnetic film.

The film is composed of an alternate lamination of unit iron layers and unit layers of ferromagnetic iron compound such as Fe.sub.3 Al, Fe.sub.3 Si, Fe.sub.3 Ge and Fe.sub.3 Ga. The thickness of the both unit layers is less than 70 .ANG.. The film has a high saturation magnetization more than 230 emu/g and a high thermal stability so that the film is particularly applicable to a magnetic head core.
