Then, a metal magnetic film having a high saturation magnetic flux density such as permalloy is further deposited thereon (that is, embedded in the portions removed as the magnetic core portions (61, 62)) to make the upper surface flat. Then, before depositing the magnetic core portion 63 of the second layer, the insulating layer 15 serving as the recording gap is deposited on the recording gap portion serving as the tip of the head (on the upper surface of the head tip 61). Further, similarly to the above, the second layers 5 ', 6'and the third layers 5 ", 6" are formed. At this time, SiO 2

At surfaces 10 and 11, they serve as stoppers for the non-magnetic electrically insulating films 5'and 5 ", so that the etching is completely terminated at this surface.

With this structure, as shown in FIG. 2 which is a sectional view taken along the line DD ′ of FIG. 1 and is a sectional view in the vicinity of the recording gap portion, the magnetic core portion serving as the layers above and below the gap is formed. Since both 61 and 63 form a metal magnetic film having a high saturation magnetic flux density, magnetic saturation hardly occurs at the time of recording near the gap. Therefore, when a plurality of such thin-film magnetic heads are arranged side by side to form a multi-track magnetic head, recording bleeding does not occur up to an adjacent track on a recording medium such as a magnetic tape, and the adjacent track is magnetically improved. A multi-track magnetic head capable of recording separately can be constructed.

The removal pattern of the portion to be the magnetic core portion is changed from that of the above embodiment, and the tape sliding surface of the magnetic head (E in FIG. 4).
The cross-sectional area of the magnetic core portion along the line (E ') was reduced to narrow the magnetic core near the gap and concentrate the magnetic flux in this portion to generate a strong magnetic field, thereby improving the recording efficiency.

Since a flat substrate with no step on the surface can be obtained, the same manufacturing process can be repeated thereon to form a multilayer thin film magnetic core, and the cross-sectional area of the winding part of the thin film magnetic core can be increased.

A method for manufacturing a thin wound magnetic head, comprising a magnetic circuit formed by a magnetic substrate and a thin film magnetic core, and winding a thin film conductor coil around the thin film magnetic core. The lower thin film conductor coil is embedded in the surface of the magnetic electric insulating material, the upper surface of the magnetic substrate is flattened, and further, the lower thin film of the first layer of non-magnetic electric insulating film deposited on the flat upper surface of the magnetic substrate. A first-layer thin-film magnetic core made of a metal magnetic material is embedded in each of the removed portions obtained by separating and removing the coil conductor portion in which the conductor coil is embedded and the head tip portion that is the tip of the head. The non-magnetic electrical insulating film and the upper surface of the first-layer thin-film magnetic core are the same flat surface, and further, an insulating film that forms a gap on the upper surface of the head tip portion of the first-layer thin-film magnetic core. And a second layer or more thin film magnetic cores and a second layer on the flat upper surface of the first layer non-magnetic electrical insulating film and the first layer thin film magnetic core including the insulating film that becomes the gap. Alternatively, a non-magnetic electric insulation film of more than that is formed, and the second
A method of manufacturing a thin-film magnetic head, characterized in that an upper thin-film conductor coil is formed on a thin-film magnetic core of one or more layers.
