MAGNETIC TRANSDUCER HEADS UTILISING MAGNETORESISTANCE EFFECT

摘要

A magnetoresistance characteristic of a magnetoresistance effect element (22) used in a magnetoresistance effect type magnetic transducer head is arranged to have excellent linearity by so constructing the element (22) that the angle ( phi ) between the anisotropic direction (HK), namely the axis of easy magnetisation, of the element (22) and the direction of a signal magnetic field (Hs) applied to the element satisfies the condition that 50 DEG
