摘要:
With a view to solving the problem of "pseudo-gap" in a parallel type MIG head and to improving its reproduction output, effective combinations of the principal magnetic path forming face and the gap-forming face were determined empirically for the case of using a single-crystal ferrite core material. The improved magnetic head comprises a pair of magnetic core halves made of a single-crystal ferrite, at least one of said magnetic core halves having a thin ferromagnetic metal film formed on the gap-forming face, and said thin ferromagnetic metal film abutting against the other magnetic core half with a non-magnetic material being interposed to form a magnetic gap, the improvement wherein the principal magnetic path forming face of the magnetic core half provided with said thin ferromagnetic metal film has a crystal plane generally designated {211} whereas a vector A that is parallel to the crystal axis in said principal magnetic path forming face and that is directed away from the gap-forming face forms an angle .theta. of the range 0.degree.-60.degree. or 150.degree.-180.degree. with a vector B that is parallel to the intersection of the principal magnetic path forming face and the gap-forming face and that approaches the face opposite to a recording medium.

A parallel type MIG (Metal in Gap) magnetic head includes single-crystal ferrite core halves with a thin ferromagnetic film formed on the gap-forming face of at least one of the core halves. The core halves are joined together using a glass having an Fe content in the range of 2-13 at %. The crystalline geometry of the principal magnetic path forming faces and gap forming faces of the core halves is selected to minimize the pseudo-gap problem and to improve reproduction output.

A magnetic head has a pair of magnetic core halves opposed to each other with a non-magnetic material posed therebetween to form a magnetic gap, which head includes a pair of magnetic core halves, a first ferromagnetic metal thin film and a second ferromagnetic metal thin film. The magnetic core halves are formed of ferromagnetic oxide such as Mn-Zn ferrite, and they have opposing surfaces opposed to each other to provide the magnetic gap. The first ferromagnetic metal thin film formed of Fe-Si-Al alloy is formed at least on one of the opposing surfaces. The second ferromagnetic metal thin film formed of Fe-Si-Al alloy having different constituent ratio from the first ferromagnetic metal thin film is formed between the magnetic gap and the first ferromagnetic metal thin film. The flux density of the second ferromagnetic metal thin film induced when a magnetic field of 1.2K oersted is applied exceeds 1000 gauss. The ratio of the saturation flux density of the second ferromagnetic metal thin film to that of the first ferromagnetic metal thin film is not higher than 0.6. The self recording reproducing capability of the magnetic head is not degraded in the high frequency region, and the self recording reproducing capability in the low frequency region is increased.

A magnetic head comprises a pair of magnetic core halves, heat-resistant thin films and ferromagnetic thin films, the pair of magnetic core halves being opposed to each other through a non-magnetic material such as SiO.sub.2 to form a magnetic gap. The magnetic core halves are made of a ferromagnetic oxide such as ferrite and have gap forming faces to be opposed to each other to form the magnetic gap. The gap forming faces are etched by phosphoric acid solution and then purified by reverse sputtering, so that a grown crystal of the ferromagnetic oxide is exposed on the gap forming faces. A heat-resistant thin film of a heat-resistant material such as SiO.sub.2 is formed on each of the gap forming faces. A ferromagnetic thin film of a ferromagnetic metal material such as sendust is formed on each heat-resistant thin film. Preferably, the thickness of the heat-resistant thin film to be formed is 1 nm or more and one tenth or less of the width of the magnetic gap. For example, SiO.sub.2 films of 5 nm in thickness as the heat-resistant thin films are formed on the respective gap forming faces and sendust films of 3 .mu.m in thickness as the ferromagnetic metal thin films are formed on the respective SiO.sub.2 films. In this case, the gap length of the magnetic gap is set to 0.2 .mu.m.

A magnetic head comprises a pair of magnetic core halves (1a, 1b), which are abutted with each other through a nonmagnetic material to define a magnetic gap (2), and ferromagnetic thin films (3a, 3b). The magnetic core halves (1a, 1b), which are formed of ferromagnetic oxide, have gap forming surfaces to be abutted with each other. The ferromagnetic metal thin films (3a, 3b) are selectively formed on the gap forming surfaces of the pair of magnetic core halves (1a, 1b). A ferromagnetic thin film (3b) is so formed that portion (12b, 12c, 12d) to be provided with a track width regulating groove (13b), a coil groove (13c) or a joining member receiving groove (13d) is exposed within a gap forming surface of one magnetic core half member (7b). Another ferromagnetic thin film (3a) is so formed that, in a gap forming surface of another magnetic core half member (7a), a portion (12e, 12f) opposite to the coil groove (13c) or the joining member receiving groove (13d) to be provided in the gap forming surface of the magnetic core half member (7b) is exposed. These ferromagnetic thin films (3a, 3b) are selectively formed by ion beam etching. Grooves (13b, 13c, 13d) are provided in one magnetic core half (1b) by mechanical working through a dicing saw or the like.

The invention provides a thin film magnetic head including an upper core layer 9 which comprises a front first core layer 91a formed on a gap spacer layer 6 and having the same width as a track width on the recording medium at least in the vicinity of the face to be opposed to a recording medium, and a second core layer 92 extending from the medium-opposed face over the upper surface of the front first core layer 91a and further over the upper surface of an upper insulating layer 72. The upper core layer 9 has a thickness greater in a region extending from the medium-opposed face to a depth end restricting face DE of a lower insulating layer 71 than in a region extending over the upper surface of the upper insulating layer 72. The front first core layer 91a has an upper surface flush with the upper surface of the lower insulating layer 71. This structure gives an accurate track width and assures production with a high yield.
