Composite type thin film magnetic head.

摘要

A magnetoresistance effect type thin film magnetic reproducing head having a magnetoresistance effect element (4) and an induction type magnetic recording head (9-12) are laminated to form a reproducing gap and a recording gap separately. A magnetic layer (8) is provided close to the recording gap (g2) for defining a width of a recording track of a magnetic recording medium. <IMAGE>
