    摘要: A thin film magnetic head includes an upper and a lower magnetic pole layer extending forward from a central magnetic core within a thin film coil. A narrow upper and lower front magnetic pole piece are connected to the front ends of the upper and lower magnetic pole layer, respectively. The upper front magnetic pole piece extends rearward from its front end exposed at a medium-opposed surface. The lower front magnetic pole piece extends in a lateral direction along the medium-opposed surface by a lateral width larger than that of the upper front magnetic pole piece. The lower front magnetic pole piece extends rearward from the medium-opposed surface by a longitudinal length smaller than that of the upper front magnetic pole piece. The lower front magnetic pole piece serves to concentrate the magnetic flux at the front ends of the upper and lower front magnetic pole pieces. Since the lower front magnetic pole piece is designed to have a larger lateral width in the lateral direction irrespective of a smaller length in the longitudinal direction, the production of the lower front magnetic pole piece can remarkably be facilitated.

    摘要: An upper auxiliary magnetic pole is formed in a space on a lower magnetic pole layer. A first insulating layer is then formed over the surface of the lower magnetic pole layer. The upper auxiliary magnetic pole is embedded within a swell formed on the surface of the first insulating layer. A second insulating layer is then formed over the surface of the first insulating layer. The second insulating layer has a property less abrasive than the first insulating layer. The second insulating layer is subjected to grinding over a wider area just after the swell has completely been removed. The abrasion can be suppressed at the thin film magnetic head in which the swell has been removed. The first insulating layer of a predetermined thickness reliably remains in each of the thin film magnetic heads on the wafer. An accurate adjustment of the thickness of the first insulating layer leads to a reliable establishment of a predetermined thickness in the upper auxiliary magnetic pole with less error.

    摘要: A MR head employs a biasing soft magnetic film of a FeXN-based alloy which undergoes no change in the direction of its axis of easy magnetization even when subject to heat treatment. The MR head has an anisotropic magnetic field size of 10 Oe or greater, and electrical resistance p of 70 .mu..OMEGA.cm or greater, and a saturation flux density Bs of 1 T or greater. The direction of the axis of easy magnetization of the biasing soft magnetic film is oriented perpendicular to the direction of sense current, and the direction of the axis of easy magnetization of the MR film is oriented parallel to the sense current direction.

    摘要: The method of manufacturing a thin film magnetic head is capable of precisely forming a core section with preventing the variation of the write-core head caused by ion milling for removing an electric conductive film and capable of improving yield of products. The method of manufacturing a thin film magnetic head, in which a core section having prescribed write-core width is formed by applying ion milling to an upper magnetic pole and a lower magnetic pole, comprises the steps of examining the write-core width of the core section; covering a surface of the core section with a protection film except an electric conductive film for preventing electro static charge of a wafer; and removing the exposed electric conductive film by ion milling.

    摘要: The present invention provides an insulation characteristic measuring method of measuring electrical insulation of magnetic head elements formed on a wafer. Each of the magnetic head elements includes an upper magnetic pole layer, a lower magnetic pole layer, insulation layers disposed between the upper and lower magnetic pole layers, and a coil layer formed of a conductive material and disposed between the insulation layers. In at least one of the magnetic head elements, the upper and lower magnetic pole layers are electrically insulated from each other, and the upper and lower magnetic pole layers and the coil layer of the element are respectively connected to terminals of electrodes for measuring insulation. The insulation characteristic of the magnetic head elements is measured by the electrodes. It is therefore possible to measure whether insulation is ensured between layers of the magnetic head elements, which need to be insulated from each other.
