Abstract

An amorphous magnetic alloy of Co-Nb-Zr system contains Co, Nb and Zr and has a composition which falls, in terms of atomic percent, within the region defined by straight lines connecting, in a ternary composition diagram assuming the total of contents of these three elements to be 100, a point (81% Co, 14% Nb, 5 Zr), a point (88% Co, 9% Nb, 3% Zr), a point (86.5% Co, 12.5% Nb, 1% Zr) and a point (81% Co, 18% Nb, 1% Zr). Disclosed also is a magnetic head having a core at least a part of which is constituted by this amorphous magnetic alloy. This magnetic head, when used in combination with a metal powder tape having a high coercive force, provides a remarkably increased recording-reproducing output.
