Weichmagnetischer mehrschichtiger Dünnfilm zum Gebrauch in einem Dünnfilmmagnetkopf und Herstellungsverfahren dafür

摘要

A soft-magnetic multilayer thin film produced by electroplating, wherein an anode-dissolution process is effected by intermittently applying a reverse d.c. bias current with respect to the plating-forward current. Involving the anode-dissolution process allows the formation of a re-dissolution effect layer differing in crystal structure from the plated film layer. A soft-magnetic multilayer thin film characterized by having a multilayer film structure which comprises a plated layer and a re-dissolution effect layer laminated to each other and which the plated layer is at least magnetically isolated. Further, a method of manufacturing a soft-magnetic multilayer thin film having a multilayer film structure magnetically isolated only through plating, which is offered by introducing the anode-dissolution process. In a thin-film magnetic head produced by using a soft-magnetic multilayer thin film, the soft-magnetic multilayer thin film serves as at least one of an upper magnetic core layer and a lower magnetic core layer.
