Description
磁性材料製の主磁極層と、記録媒体との対向面で且つ前記主磁極層のトレーリング側に、非磁性のギャップ層を挟んで前記主磁極層と対向する磁性材料製のリターンヨーク層と、前記主磁極層及びリターンヨーク層に記録磁界を与えるためのコイル層と、を有し、
少なくとも、前記主磁極層及びリターンヨーク層の前記対向面からハイト方向に離れた後端部間には非磁性のスペーサ層が設けられ、
前記主磁極層より膜厚の薄い磁性材料製の薄膜磁性層が、前記リターンヨーク層と前記対向面及び前記後端部で接続されており、前記薄膜磁性層と前記主磁極層との間に、前記スペーサ層が設けられることを特徴とするものである。
前記補助ヨーク層と前記スペーサ層間に前記薄膜磁性層が設けられ、前記薄膜磁性層は、前記リターンヨーク層の対向面と接続されるとともに、前記補助ヨークの後端部と接続されていることが好ましい。このように、前記主磁極層を面積の広い前記補助ヨーク層と前記スペーサ層を介して対向させることで、記録磁界が、広い範囲にわたって、前記補助ヨーク層から前記主磁極層へ流れ込むので、前記スペーサ層を設けたことによって記録磁界が減衰するのをより適切に抑制でき、より効果的に記録特性を維持できる。
