The head is characterized in that the width of the main pole magnetic thin film involved in recording and reproduction changes from a width larger than the track width to the length of the track width toward the end surface in contact with the medium. (Operation) The main pole head O, which is a magnetic head, is brought into contact with the medium from a width larger than the track width in the direction of the track. By forming a shape that narrows down to the length of the track width toward the end face, the magnetic resistance is reduced from a magnetic circuit perspective compared to the strip-shaped main pole magnetic film of the prior art, which is the same as the track width. can be made smaller. Then, the magnetic flux related to the recording and reproducing voltage is increased, and the recording and reproducing efficiency is improved (Example) Next, an example of the present invention is shown in FIG. 2, but the following 5j! In the example, the main pole magnetic film was formed in a convex shape as shown in FIG. That is, a high permeability magnetic thin film l
varies up to the track width TW with the narrowing angle φ.
