Abstract:
A new and improved unshielded horizontal magnetoresistive head (100) is disclosed which utilizes multiple pairs of magnetoresistive elements (1, 2, 3, 4). The present invention provides a device which is characterized by reduced output signal undershoot amplitudes, and an increased central peak pulse amplitude, while not significantly affecting the resolution of the device. The device is also characterized by increased signal to noise and signal to interference ratios. Magnetoresistive elements (1, 2, 3, 4) utilized in the device may be fabricated and/or manufactured by simplified processes, resulting in fabrication, manufacturing and cost benefits for the magnetoresistive head. Any number of additional magnetoresistive head. Any number of additional magnetoresistive element pairs may be utilized dependent on the accuracy and resolution required by the specific application.
Abstract:
The formation of a gap in a magnetic head core or the junction of a thin magnetic film of a metal with an oxide substrate of a magnetic head made of a composite of a thin magnetic film of a metal with an oxide material are conducted by the thermal diffusion between golden layers themselves at a low temperature. Then, chromium or titanium is made present between the gold layer and the junction surface to prevent deterioration of magnetic characteristics and generation of false gap and, at the same time, to heighten the junction strength. The thermal diffusion between golden layers themselves is effected at a temperature lower than that of glass fusion to suppress the deterioration of magnetic characteristics, distortion caused by the thermal expansion, and diffusion reaction on the interface. The chromium or titanium layer works to maintain junction strength between the thin magnetic layer or the oxide substrate and the golden layer.

Application to the reading and optionally the writing of magnetically recorded information.
Abstract:
Apparatus and method for coupling a magnetic transducer (20) with a transducing gap (26) that is wider than that used for transferring information signals to a magnetic record medium (42). A magnetic control flux is applied to the transducer to enable a selected segment of the transducing gap, which defines a transducing zone (56), for transferring information signals with respect to a selected path (126) along the magnetic record medium. Registration of the transducing zone over the selected path is maintained by varying the applied magnetic control flux to thereby move the transducing zone along the wider transducing gap so as to compensate for deviations between the path traced by the transducing zone over the magnetic record medium and the selected path.
Abstract:
A magnetic head is provided having a head core constituted by a sandwiched magnetic material (9) on both sides thereof by a pair of non-magnetic substrate materials (8,10), the magnetic material (9) and the substrate materials (8,10) being bonded by crystallized glass containing crystals such as gahnite, willemite or the like.
Abstract:
A perpendicular magnetic recording head having a main pole film of an amorphous alloy magnetic film containing Co as principal component is improved by being coated by a non-oxide passivation film of nitride such as Si 3 N 4 or AlN or carbide such as SiC, instead of being coated by conventional Si0 2 film; since the passivation film does not contain oxygen, the amorphous alloy film is not oxidized during annealing in the manufacturing process; and the forming of the passivation film is made in a continuous sputtering without breaking vacuum after sputtering the amorphous alloy magnetic film.

n a magnetic head comprising a head gap and a magnetic core composed of both a high permeability ferrite and a magnetic alloy, said magnetic alloy being disposed in the vicinity of said head gap, the improvement comprising a corrugation provided at a junction portion between said ferrite and said magnetic alloy, a height of said corrugation being not less than a value of the longest wavelength of luminance signals and color signals recorded on a magnetic recording medium, a distance defined between adjacent two crests or bottoms of said corrugation being smaller than a width of a head track.
Abstract:
A magnetic head has a pair of outer pole pieces (32, 34) spaced from a central pole piece (36) to define a pair of transducing gaps (28, 30). An individual coil (12, 14) is disposed between each of the outer pole pieces and the central pole piece. The coils (12, 14) are connected to control circuit means (Figure 8) which is operable to connect the coils in series for a write operation (so that the flux in the outer pole pieces is additive for writing), and to connect the coils in series opposition for a read operation (so that the flux produced in the central pole by a previously recorded magnetic transition in the magnetic recording medium adjacent to the transducing gaps is sensed additively in the coils).
Abstract:
There is provided a magnetic head for perpendicular magnetic recording which has a main pole core (15, 20, 20') and an auxiliary pole core (16, 23, 23') and is constituted such that the side surface of the auxiliary pole core opposite to the main pole core near the surface side which faces a magnetic recording medium (10) is formed like a concave or convex shape with respect to the main pole core. This magnetic head has excellent recording and reproducing characteristics which are not subjected to the interference actions on the recording and reproduction due to the edge portion of the auxiliary pole core.

This disclosure is directed to an amorphous magnetic head which includes a main core having core halves each formed from non-laminated thin sheets of amorphous magnetic material, a non-magnetic spacer, with the core halves being abutted against each other through the non-magnetic spacer disposed in a front gap which is provided between the core halves and whose lower edge is defined by a coil winding opening formed in the core halves, and a set of reinforcing members applied onto opposite sides of the main core to hold the core halves between them. Resinous material is infiltered between the respective reinforcing members and the core halves for integration of the respective elements into one unit. The disclosure also relates to a method of manufacturing such an amorphous magnetic head on a large scale in an efficient manner.
