摘要:
A spin-valve magnetic resistance sensor. In one embodiment, the spin-valve magnetic resistance sensor includes a pair of ferromagnetic layers with a non-magnetic layer sandwiched in between. The pair of ferromagnetic layers, the non-magnetic layer and an antiferromagnetic layer are laminated on a substrate. The antiferromagnetic layer is formed using an antiferromagnetic material which uses a Pt—Mn—X alloy, Ir—Mn—X alloy, Rh—Mn—X alloy, Ru—Mn—X alloy or Pd—Mn—X alloy. X indicates one or more elements selected from a set consisting of elements of groups IIA, IVA, VA, IIIB and IVB of the periodic table. X is in the range of 0.1 at % to 15 at %.

The present invention provides a spin-valve magnetic resistance sensor in which an underlayer, which has a second underlayer film with an fcc structure consisting of an alloy formed by combining one or more elements selected from a set consisting of elements of group VIIIa and group Ib of the periodic table, and one or more elements selected from a set consisting of elements of groups IIa, IVa, Va, VIa, IIb, Ib and IVb of the periodic table, such as NiFeCrTi or NiCrTi, etc., is formed on the substrate, and a magnetic resistance (MR) film which has an antiferromagnetic layer consisting of a Pt1−xMnx alloy or an Ir1−xMnx alloy is laminated on top of this underlayer. The composition ratio of the element with the smallest free energy of oxide formation among the elements contained in the alloy of the second underlayer film is in the range of 0.1 atomic % to 15 atomic %.

Amorphous alloys containing zirconium as an amorphus forming metal and having the formula X.sub..alpha. Z.sub..gamma. wherein X is at least one of Fe, Co and Ni, .alpha. is 80 to 92 atomic %, Z is zirconium, .gamma. is 8 to 20 atomic % and the sum of .alpha. and .gamma. is 100 atomic %, cause very little variation of properties during aging and embrittlement because they contain no metalloid as the amorphous forming element, and they further have excellent strength, hardness, corrosion resistance and heat resistance and maintain superior magnetic properties which are characteristic of iron group elements.

A composite magnetic head is disclosed which is characterized by the fact that a magnetic head slider part and magnetic head core pieces both made of non-magnetic ceramic and provided on each of the opposed surfaces thereof with at least one layer of soft magnetic film produced in the form of sheet and subsequently shaped as required are integrally joined through the medium of glass members interposed between the opposed surfaces so as to give rise to a magnetic gap and an electromagnetic transducer coil is wound on the magnetic head core pieces.A composite magnetic head is further disclosed which is characterized by the fact that a magnetic head slider part and magnetic head core pieces, one made of an oxide magnetic material and the other made of a non-magnetic ceramic, are integrally joined through the medium of glass members interposed between pertinent opposed surfaces so as to give rise to a magnetic gap, the member made of the non-magnetic ceramic is provided on the opposed surface thereof with at least one layer of soft magnetic film produced in the form of sheet and subsequently shaped as required, and an electromagnetic transducer coil is wound on the magnetic head core pieces.
摘要:
In a magnetic recording medium in which a metallic base layer and a magnetic layer are provided on a nonmagnetic nonmetallic substrate, an intermediate layer is additionally formed between the substrate and the metallic base layer in order to improve peeling-off resistance of the metallic base layer for durability against magnetic head contact-start-stop operation. The intermediate layer is a metal oxide layer including at least one of specified elements, or a composite layer made up of the metal oxide layer and a metal or alloy layer including at least one of the same specified elements and formed on the metal oxide layer. The specified element include Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W and Mn. Oxygen concentration in the oxide layer may decrease toward the metallic base layer. The oxide layer may be replaced by nitride layer of these metals.
