摘要:
A thin film magnetic head comprising a lower magnetic film, an upper magnetic film which is formed over the lower magnetic film and in which one end is come into contact with one end of the lower magnetic film and the other end faces the other end of the lower magnetic film through a magnetic gap and thereby forming a magnetic circuit which has a magnetic gap in a part thereof, together with the lower magnetic film, and a conductor coil forming a coil of a predetermined number of turns and passing between the upper and lower magnetic films and crossing the magnetic circuit. Each of the upper and lower magnetic films is formed of a Co-Ni-Fe ternary alloy having a face-centered cubic crystal structure. Also, uniaxial anisotropy is alternately and perpendicularly given in every layer of a predetermined thickness stacked in the direction of thickness of the film.

A method of patterning a thin film by dry etching is disclosed in which, in order for a thin alumina film to have a predetermined pattern, the thin alumina film is selectively removed by carrying out the ion beam etching which uses a carbon fluoride gas, while using a photoresist film as a mask.

A method of forming a thin film pattern on a base having a step portion. This method comprises a first step of forming a thin film of given material on the base, a second step of forming a predetermined pattern of a first photoresist film on said thin film at one of a first portion including a lower part of the step portion and a second portion including an upper part of the step portion, a third step of forming a predetermined pattern of a second photoresist film on said thin film at the other of the first and second portions and a fourth step of applying ion-milling to said thin film of given material using masks said first and second photoresist film patterns formed on said thin film at the first and second portions.
摘要:
A selective working method in which the surface to be worked of a workpiece is locally irradiated with energy beams and an electroless plating solution or an electroless etching solution is contacted with the irradiated workpiece surface, with the electroless plating solution or the electroless etching solution flowing continuously in the substantially same direction of as the direction of an irradiation of energy beams. The electroless plating of the electroless etching can be conducted selectively by this method. Above selective working method is best suited for the formation or correction (repair, filling up etc.) of micro-patterns on the workpiece such as metals, semi-conductors, insulators, etc.
摘要:
In a selective electroless plating process suitable for formation and correction of a minute pattern by plating film, irradiation of the surface of a workpiece with a laser beam serves to selectively activate the surface of the workpiece to allow an electroless plating film to deposited on only the activated portions. The portion of the workpiece where plating is effected is irradiated with a radiation energy beam to form a damaged portion, which is contact with a plating bath during and/or after the irradiation to selectively from a plating film on the damaged portion. The portion of a workpiece where a pole as the connector part of a multilayer wiring board is to be formed is irradiated with a laser beam and allowed to have a pole selectively formed only thereon.

A magnetic head for reading from and/or writing to a magnetic information storage medium has a substrate on which a plurality of thin films are formed in sequence. The films provide a magnetic circuit having a magnetic gap, a bottom pole piece and a top pole piece overlying said bottom pole piece. The top pole piece is formed as a tip portion adjoining the magnetic gap and a rear portion which makes magnetic contact with the tip portion. The rear portion is formed in the sequence after the tip portion. To ensure accurate thickness and width of the tip portion, a non-magnetic protective film is formed on the tip portion after the tip portion is formed and before the rear portion is formed.

A thin film magnetic head including conductor coils, a plurality of insulating layers to interpose and insulate the conductor coils and a magnetic gap layer between upper and lower magnetic cores, in which another insulating layer is provided on a stepped region formed by end faces of the plurality of insulating layers.
摘要:
Multiple thin films of spin-valve GMR sensor are formed in a trapezoidal cross-sectional shape by laminating an antiferromagnetic layer, a pinned magnetic layer, a nonmagnetic conductive layer, a free magnetic layer and a nonmagnetic protective layer on a lower insulated gap layer. The amount of etching of the lower insulated gap layer produced in the process of patterning the spin-valve giant magnetoresistive layers into the multiple thin films of spin-valve GMR sensor is 10 nm or less. Further, the angle θ which the tangent line of each side face of the multiple thin films to the middle line of the free magnetic layer in its thickness direction forms with respect to the middle line of the free magnetic layer becomes 45 degrees or more. This structure makes it possible to provide such a spin-valve giant magnetoresistive head that it meets the requirements for securing constant breakdown voltage and preventing instability of MR output voltage waveform.
摘要:
In one embodiment, a thin-film magnetic head with a write head has a lower core member made of a soft magnetic film, a planar upper core member made of a soft magnetic film, and a coil conductor positioned between the lower and upper core members. The rear end is equipped with a magnetic body, which at least magnetically joins the lower and upper core members. A magnetic pole piece is in contact with the lower core member and positioned toward an air bearing surface, which faces a recording medium. A first nonmagnetic film is provided between a pedestal magnetic pole piece and upper core member. The write head is structured so that the first nonmagnetic film constitutes a write gap. A second nonmagnetic film is provided above or below the first nonmagnetic film. The edge of the second nonmagnetic film is retracted from the air bearing surface. The upper core member's flare point is positioned toward the air bearing surface rather than the edge of the second nonmagnetic film.
