Abstract

A magnetic head comprising a pair of magnetic core halves each having a magnetic core film sandwiched between a pair of non-magnetic substrates, said magnetic core halves being abutted to each other with the end faces of the magnetic core films facing each other, with a magnetic gap being defined in an interface of abutment of said magnetic core films, wherein the magnetic core film is of a laminated magnetic film structure comprising a plurality of laminated magnetic film units laminated with insulating films in-between. Each laminated magnetic film unit in turn comprises a plurality of magnetic films with non-magnetic films in-between, with the magnetic films being magnetostatically connected to one another at film ends. By employing the laminated magnetic film unit for the magnetic core film, it becomes possible to markedly increase the magnetic permeability in a direction normal to the gap depth when anisotropy is applied in the gap depth direction. With the above magnetic head, a plurality of the magnetic film units are laminated with insulating films in-between for suppressing eddy current losses in the high frequency region. As a result, excellent electro-magnetic transducin…
