Abstract

Substrate materials for magnetic heads consisting of 24-75 mol % of .alpha.-Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 and the remaining 76-25 mol % of TiC.sub.x O.sub.y N.sub.z containing a small amount of additives, that has a NaCl-type structure which retain known characteristics required on such materials and have controlled sizes of crystallites of Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 and TiC.sub.x O.sub.y N.sub.z, uniformly dispersed TiC.sub.x O.sub.y N.sub.z crystallites and, if any, additive elements, in which internal stress is relieved. The materials are intended for eliminating problems in IBE to form steps and thus for fabricating high-precision thin-film heads for high-density recording.
