Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a high reproducing efficiency and excellent recording and reproducing outputs with a magnetic head by not forming the tape sliding surface of the head of a laminated structure of a magnetic and nonmagnetic substances, but of a magnetic substance and making the width of the core section wider than the effective track width of the tape sliding surface. CONSTITUTION:Amorphous thin films of a magnetic substance 1 and SiO2 thin films of a nonmagnetic substance 2 are successively piled up and the same magnetic substance 1 as that used for the magnetic thin films of the laminated part is bonded to the tape sliding surface of this magnetic head. At a gap section 3, the same nonmagnetic substance 2 as that used for the nonmagnetic thin films of the laminated part is formed in order to decide the track width. Therefore, the effective track width of the gap section 3 on the tape sliding surface of this magnetic head can be put in practical use to the maximum. Moreover, when the width of the core section constituted of the laminated magnetic thin films 1 and nonmagnetic thin films 2 is made wider than the track width, the magnetic resistance of the core section can be reduced. As a result, the reproducing efficiency of this magnetic head is improved and excellent recording and reproducing outputs are obtained.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In a magnetic head like the above example, the total width of the laminated non-magnetic material is finite relative to the track width of the tape sliding surface, so the effective track of the magnetic material relative to the track width is limited. There is a drawback that the width is reduced and as a result, the recording/reproducing output is reduced. Furthermore, since the track is subdivided by the laminated structure, there is a problem in that the recorded signal is distorted by the disturbed fringe magnetic field near the edge of the laminated portion. Furthermore, in the conventional laminated structure head, the core width is equal to the track width (which is smaller than the core width of the conventional bulk type head), so there is a major drawback in that the magnetic resistance of the core portion increases and the reproduction efficiency decreases.

Means for Solving the Problems In the magnetic head of the present invention, the tape sliding surface of the magnetic head does not have a laminated structure of a magnetic material and a non-magnetic material, but is made of only a magnetic material. By making maximum use of the effective track width of the tape, and by making the width of the core section, which is made up of laminated layers of magnetic and non-magnetic materials, wider than the effective track width of the tape sliding surface, it has high playback efficiency and excellent performance. Recording and playback output can be obtained.

By forming the width to be wider than the track width, the magnetic resistance of the core portion can be reduced, so that excellent recording and reproducing output can be obtained even for short-wavelength signals where the recording and reproducing output signal is small.

In order to determine the track width in the gap portion, a non-magnetic material 2 made of the same material as the non-magnetic material of the laminated portion is formed. FIG. 2 is a side view of the gap portion 3 in FIG. 1. As shown in the figure, the tape sliding surface is formed only from the magnetic material 1, and the track width is determined by the non-magnetic material 2. It is widely formed.

Effects of the Invention According to the present invention, the surface layer portion of the tape sliding surface is formed only of magnetic material, the track width at the gap portion is determined by the non-magnetic material, and the magnetic material and the non-magnetic material are used for the track width at the gap portion. By widening the width of the core formed by laminating the core, the magnetic resistance in the core is reduced, improving reproduction efficiency, and there is no drop in reproduction output, making it extremely effective for high-density magnetic recording and reproduction. . Additionally, since the core has a laminated structure, eddy current loss is lower than that of conventional bulk-type heads, and as a result, the effective resistance, which is the real part of the head impedance, is reduced, resulting in lower noise in the head amplifier system. It can be measured.
