Magnetic head.

摘要

A magnetic head is made by fixing together two head halves 9 and 39. Recesses 10 and 40 are formed in glass layers 4 and 34 on the substrates 1 and 31 respectively of the head halves, and spiral coil patterns 11 and 41 are formed in the recesses. Apart from their inner end portions 11a and 41a the coil patterns are covered by insulating protective films 23 and 53. A plurality of sloping surfaces 4b, 34b are formed on the glass layers 4 and 34 at the locations of the inner end portions of the coil patterns, whereby a plurality of projections 4a, 34a are formed. The angle of slope theta of the sloping surfaces is above 30 DEG and below 90 DEG . The coil patterns 11 and 41 comprise copper plating layers 19 and 39; because the coil pattern inner end portions lie on the projections 4a, 34a their surfaces are high and exposed at the surfaces of the insulating protective films 23, 53, and gold films 16 and 46 are formed thereon. These gold films connect to each other and connect the coil patterns 11 and 41 to form one coil. Because the inner end portions of the coil patterns are formed on the projections on the glass layers, these end portions are higher than the rest of the coil patterns and the electrical connection between the two coil patterns is certain and highly reliable. Also, because no separate forming steps for making the inner end portions of the coil pattern high are necessary, the magnetic head is easy to manufacture. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
