摘要:
The magnetic head assembly including a magnetic head having a terminal composed of a conductive film and a supporting spring. The supporting spring has interconnecting patterns (lines) on the top thereof and a projective electrode. The terminal of the magnetic head is electrically connected to the projective electrode of the supporting spring by a solderless, direct contact connection. The magnetic head is fixed to the supporting spring by using a non-electrical bonding agent. This structure makes it possible to stabilize the position of the magnetic head assembly and the relative speed variation between the magnetic head element and the magnetic disk, thereby enhancing the reliability of the magnetic disk apparatus.

A method of fabricating a thin-film magnetic in which a mask pattern in etching a bottom pole is formed of first and second mask films in this order when viewed from the bottom pole, the first mask film is used for defining, by self-alignment, the length of that portion of the side edge of a top pole which is nearly perpendicular to a magnetic gap, the second mask film makes it possible to etch the bottom pole with high dimensional accuracy, a non-magnetic film is formed on the mask pattern having the bottom pole thereunder and the exposed region of a substrate, and the top pole is formed after the mask pattern has been exposed and removed.

A fine grain milling method which mixes powder into a high-pressure fluid, and injects the mixture to a workpiece covered with a mask or pattern to process the workpiece to a desired shape. Another high-pressure fluid is injected to remove the powder adhering to the workpiece thereby enabling an accurate transfer of the mask or pattern to the workpiece.

A magnetic head element has one or more rails formed on the surface thereof. Each rail is formed so as to have a tapered angle of 55.degree.-85.degree.. To form such a rail, ion milling is conducted; the rail substrate used is allowed to have an inclination angle to 15.degree.-60.degree. and is rotated; and there is used, as the ion milling gas, a fluorinated hydrocarbon (e.g. CH.sub.2 FCF.sub.3) gas alone or a mixed gas of said fluorinated hydrocarbon gas and Ar, SF.sub.6 or the like. Accordingly, a magnetic head rail shape gives a small variation in flying height between magnetic head and magnetic disc.

This invention provides a lap capable of reducing the pole recession produced between the substrate and the magnetic film when the air-bearing surface of a thin-film magnetic head is lapped, a lapping liquor used for such lapping, and a thin-film magnetic head having its air-bearing surface lapped by using them. Lapping is carried out by using a lap made of a material having both a phase of tin and a phase of brass with a greater rigidity in supporting the abrasive grains than tin, and a lapping liquor prepared by mixing an anionic surfactant (15) and an ampholytic surfactant (16). According to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the pole recession in the thin-film magnetic heads and to accordingly shorten the recording bit length of the magnetic discs.
摘要:
A thickness/depth measuring apparatus and method for measuring the thickness of a film forming a lattice-shaped mask and the depth of a groove formed on a workpiece during processing of the workpiece. The thickness/depth measuring apparatus and method provide for irradiating the workpiece with a coherent light beam, controlling the direction for linear polarization of the coherent light beam irradiated onto the workpiece, adjusting the incident angle of the coherent light beam irradiated onto the workpiece in a predetermined angular range, receiving and detecting reflected light reflected by the workpiece at different irradiated incident angles and including higher-order diffracted light; and calculating the thickness of the film and the depth of the groove in accordance with the intensity of the diffracted light detected.

Accordingly, a magnetic head rail shape gives a small variation in flying height between magnetic bead and magnetic disc.

A magnetic head slider including a plurality of rails adapted to face a magnetic disk. Each of the rails has a longitudinal extension direction substantially in a direction of rotation of the magnetic disk, and a protective film is provided on a floating surface of at least one of the rails. A thickness of the protective film at least in a direction transverse to the longitudinal extension direction of the at least one of the rails is not uniform in the transverse direction.
