[Prior Art] Nowadays, there is a strong demand to improve the recording density of magnetic recording devices, and as one means of achieving this, it is important to reduce the recording gap width of the magnetic head. For this reason, as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, a composite head has been considered and put into practical use, in which a core 15 in which a magnetic track portion 16 having a narrow gap width is reinforced with glass 14 is inserted into an integrated slider 9 made of a non-magnetic material. .

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in the above-mentioned conventional technology, the track portion before being reinforced with glass has a weak strength when the width becomes about 10 μm (and is likely to be damaged during the manufacturing process of the magnetic head). There was always a problem with lowering the yield of the process.Also,
Since the glass is exposed on the floating surface of the magnetic head, the glass changes over time, causing deposits to stain and chipping, which significantly reduces the reliability of the magnetic head.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention aims to solve these problems, and its purpose is to provide a narrow gap width that is easy to handle during the manufacturing process of a magnetic head and does not require the use of glass, etc., which is subject to significant deterioration over time. There are several companies that provide magnetic heads that can achieve this goal.

The reason for using a laminated film is that Sendust is generally an electrical conductor, so it generates eddy currents due to the skin effect associated with the flow of magnetic flux K. This eddy current disturbs the magnetic flux, resulting in deterioration of high frequency magnetic permeability. To prevent this, 6 μm

, 31, N4 or the like is also effective. Further, it is also possible to insert ferrite or the like, which has different characteristics from the Sendust magnetic film and is an electrical insulator, as the intermediate layer 12. Also, even if a permalloy magnetic film made of Ni-Fe, which is an electrical conductor but has a different electrical conductivity, is inserted, it is discontinuous with sendust, so it will not be the same (
This has the effect of reducing eddy currents.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, if the number of layers is two, a gap width of 6 μm can be achieved, and if the number of layers is one, a narrow gap width of 3 μm can be achieved. Furthermore, even during the manufacturing process, the magnetic film is always held by the magnetic head blocks 3 and 4, so there is no damage caused by mistakes during operation. Furthermore, substances with low long-term stability such as glass are not exposed on the floating surface 5.
