摘要:
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 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 magnetic storage/read system includes a recording medium for magnetically storing a signal and a magnetoresistive element which is driven relative to the recording medium. The magnetoresistive element may include a substrate, a first antiferromagnetic film, a first ferromagnetic film, a first nonmagnetic film, a soft magnetic film, a second nonmagnetic film, a second ferromagnetic film, and a second antiferromagnetic film, wherein the films are sequentially layered directly on the substrate with no intervening layer between any of the films. At least one of the first antiferromagnetic film and the second antiferromagnetic film may be made of nickel oxide. The first ferromagnetic film and the second ferromagnetic film have a first magnetization which is fixed in a predetermined direction, and the soft magnetic film has a second magnetization which is rotatable in response to a magnetic field from the recording medium such that an angle between a direction of the second magnetization and the predetermined direction in which the first magnetization is fixed varies in response to the magnetic field from the recording medium, thereby producing a magnetoresistive effect.
