Abstract

PURPOSE:To remove a waving phenomenon of a recording density independent curve and to improve recording and reproducing characteristics by constituting a main magnetic pole so as not to be in parallel with an auxiliary magnetic pole. CONSTITUTION:A V-shaped groove is formed on the auxiliary magnetic pole plate to be also used as a substrate and an auxiliary magnetic pole 22 is formed by embedding glass or the like and smoothing the surface. The auxiliary magnetic pole 22 is not made parallel with the main magnetic pole 26 through an inorganic insulating layer 23 provided with a conductive coil 24 because of said bevel shape, so that the waving phenomenon of the recording density independent curve of a recording density reproducing output is removed and the recording and reproducing characteristics of a vertical magnetic recording/reproducing thin film head are improved.

Auxiliary magnetic pole 13 for forming a closed magnetic path is main magnetic pole 1
An organic insulating layer 15 is an inorganic insulating layer for electrically insulating between the auxiliary magnetic pole 12 and the conductor coil 14;
2 is located parallel to the main magnetic pole 11. In a thin film head for perpendicular magnetic recording and reproducing, in order to perform recording and reproducing only with the main magnetic pole, the thickness t of the auxiliary magnetic pole is made larger than the thickness S of the main magnetic pole, so that magnetic flux is transferred to the main magnetic pole. The auxiliary magnetic pole part disperses the magnetic flux. However, according to research by the inventors, when recording and reproducing are performed using a thin film head with the structure shown in FIGS. I found out that it was done. Therefore,
It has been found that, due to mutual influence, several peaks occur in the dependence of the reproduction output e on the recording density shown in FIG. 2, and the output differs depending on the recording and reproduction frequency.

The present inventors considered that the ripple phenomenon of the reproduction output in the recording density dependence of the reproduction output occurs for the same reason as the air gap loss in a horizontal magnetic recording head. In other words, when the distance between the main magnetic pole and the auxiliary magnetic pole tip is an integral multiple of the recording wavelength, the magnetization at the medium position corresponding to the main magnetic pole and auxiliary magnetic pole tip position coincides, and the magnetization passes through the inside of the magnetic path during playback. It was thought that a decrease in the reproduction output was observed because the magnetic flux was canceled out. 1
One possible solution is to make the auxiliary magnetic pole sufficiently thick to disperse the magnetic flux in the auxiliary magnetic pole so that no recording or reproduction is performed using the auxiliary magnetic pole. However, there is a technical limit to increasing the thickness of the auxiliary magnetic pole, and recording and reproducing at the tip of the auxiliary magnetic pole cannot be prevented. Therefore, the inventors made the main magnetic pole and the auxiliary magnetic pole non-parallel so that the tip of the auxiliary magnetic pole spans the medium recording area several times the recording wavelength or more. By doing so, the influence of recording and reproducing at the tip of the auxiliary magnetic pole is averaged out and canceled out.

Such a structure can be easily obtained by machining in a so-called bulk type head, but it is known that the recording and reproducing efficiency of bulk type heads deteriorates in high recording density areas, and perpendicular magnetic recording It is not suitable for the method. For perpendicular magnetic recording to achieve ultra-high recording density, it is considered necessary to use a film magnetic head manufactured using a technology similar to semiconductor technology. In order to make the auxiliary magnetic pole and the main magnetic pole non-parallel in a thin-film head, special measures are required, and this can be achieved for the first time with the present invention.

Embodiment 1 FIGS. 3(a) and 3(b) show a vertical sectional view and a sketch of the main part of a thin film head for perpendicular magnetic recording and reproduction in this embodiment. In FIG. 3, 21 is an auxiliary magnetic pole that also serves as a plate, and Mn-Zn ferrite is used. A V-shaped groove 22 is formed in the center of the substrate 21 in the track width direction to realize an umbrella-shaped auxiliary magnetic pole. Glass is embedded in the groove 22 and then polished to obtain a flat surface. The depth of the groove was here 20 μm. The optimal depth in terms of recording and reproducing characteristics varies depending on the track width, but as will be shown later, a depth of at least 1 μm or more is required. Reference numeral 23 denotes a gap layer formed by a sputtering method of Sin, and its film thickness is 3 μm. The four-body coil 24 is formed of AQ by a vapor deposition method, and here, the conductor cross section has a width of 2 μm and a height of 3 μm.
This is a 5-turn spiral multi-turn coil. Reference numeral 25 denotes an organic insulating layer such as polyimide resin used for electrical insulation between the conductor coil 24 and the main magnet t7ii 26 and for flattening the upper surface of the five-tank multi-coil.

At that time, the film thickness on the surface facing the recording medium was 0.5 μm. In the head manufacturing process described above, patterning was performed using photolithography technology, and the final head shape was completed through processes such as cutting, grinding, and polishing. A head having such a structure is characterized in that it can be easily manufactured by processing a Mn-Zn ferrite substrate in advance and is suitable for mass production. These techniques and the structure other than the main part of the head are the same as those conventionally known, so they are omitted here. When recording and reproducing are performed using a thin film head such as the one described above, in which the tip of the auxiliary magnetic pole that contributes to recording and reproducing is shaped like an umbrella with respect to the main magnetic pole, the reproducing output depends on the recording density as shown by the solid line in Figure 4.

Embodiment 2 FIGS. 5(a) and 5(b) show a vertical cross section and a sketch of the main part of a thin film head for perpendicular magnetic recording and reproducing in this embodiment. In the figure, 31 is a nonmagnetic substrate, and here, Photoceram (manufactured by Corning Inc.) was used.

Reference numeral 33 denotes a void layer of Sin formed by sputtering, and its film thickness is 3 μm. The conductor coil 34 is AQ

It was a 5-turn spiral multi-turn coil of μm. 35
is a gap layer that serves as a base for forming the auxiliary magnetic pole 37 in an umbrella shape with respect to the main magnetic pole 37. Here, the thickness W of Sin, which is the height of the umbrella, is changed, and the etching pattern is formed by a sputtering method.The etching pattern is etched with a slope on the side surface by a taper etching method using a well-known wet etching method, reactive ion etching, or reactive ion milling. The main magnetic pole and the auxiliary magnetic pole were made non-parallel. In such a head, compared to the head of Example 1, it is somewhat difficult to precisely machine the main pole and the auxiliary pole to make them non-parallel, but the main pole, which plays an important role in recording and reproducing characteristics, can be made flat. Since it can be formed on a substrate, it is advantageous in terms of recording and reproducing characteristics.

In the above head manufacturing process, patterning was performed by cutting, polishing, and grinding the wafer using photolithography technology to achieve the final shape. These techniques and the structure other than the main part of the head are the same as those conventionally known, so they are omitted here. In this example, when w=3 μm, a smooth reproduction output without ripples and recording density dependence similar to that shown by the solid line in FIG. 4 were obtained as in Example 1. As a result of experiments with different W, in general, in order for the peak-to-peak difference in the recording and reproducing characteristics to be ignored, W ≥ 1 μm, that is, when the auxiliary magnetic pole and the main magnetic pole are made non-parallel, the closest distance and the farthest distance between them are required. It was requested that there should be a difference of 1 μm or more.
