摘要:
As a protective film of an element and a slider in a magnetic head, a film is provided which is excellent in adhesiveness to a film forming surface and which shows sufficient corrosion-resistance property with a thinner thickness. To provided this film, according to the present invention, a DLC film as a protective film is formed onto an element portion end surface and a surface of a slider of a magnetic head core. A film deposition step is conducted plural times to obtain the DLC film with a predetermined thickness when the DLC film is formed using an electric discharge.

A slider of the invention includes a substrate, a head element formed on the substrate and a protecting film formed on at least one portion of one surface of the substrate facing a magnetic recording medium. The protecting film comprises a base film, first DLC (diamond like carbon) film adjacent the substrate and a second DLC film. The carbon film density of said first DLC film is less than 3.1 (g/cm3) and the carbon film density of said second DLC film is more than 3.1 (g/cm3).

摘要:
A method of manufacturing a magnetic head manufactures a magnetic head having a base, and a laminate stacked on the base and including a magneto-resistive device. The method mechanically polishes a surface of a structure including the base and the laminate close to a magnetic recording medium, wherein the surface of the structure includes an end face of the laminate including an end face of the magneto-resistive device and a surface of the base. Next, the method selectively etches a first region on the surface of the structure close to the magnetic recording medium, wherein the first region includes the surface of the base but does not include the end face of the magneto-resistive device. Subsequently, the method entirely etches the surface of the structure close to the magnetic recording medium.

A magnetic recording (vapor deposition) film medium having improved friction characteristics, running durability, and still characteristics are provided. The magnetic recording thin film medium comprises a non-magnetic support having on at least one surface thereof a magnetic layer, a protective layer formed on the magnetic layer, and a lubricant layer formed on the protective layer, wherein the magnetic recording medium is obtained by that after forming the magnetic layer on the surface of the non-magnetic support conveyed along the surface of a cooling roll, a carbon-containing plasma polymerized film is formed on the magnetic layer as the protective layer, while conveying the non-magnetic support having the magnetic layer along the surface of a cooling roll, and after surface-treating the carbon-containing plasma polymerized film on the same cooling roll as the protective layer-forming roll or on a different cooling roll from the protective layer-forming roll without applying a bias voltage to the surface-treatment roll, whereby a double bond component of carbon and oxygen is incorporated in the surface of the carbon-containing plasma polymerized film at a ratio of from 1.4 to 7.5 atomic % to the whole carbon amount of the surface of the carbon-containing plasma polymerized film, and the lubricant layer made up of an ester of a fluorinated alcohol and a fatty acid is then formed on the carbon-containing plasma polymerized film.
