Abstract

PURPOSE:To make thermal off track extremely small by using an aluminum alloy having a specific coefft. of thermal expansion for a material of a slider of a thin film magnetic head for a magnetic disc device except for the rail part thereof. CONSTITUTION:A thin film magnetic head slider consists of rails 4, 5 composed of an AlTiC material and an aluminum alloy 6. A material having the value extremely approximate to the coefft. of thermal expansion of the aluminum alloy used for the base plate of a magnetic disc or the same material as the material of the base plate. The coefft. of thermal expansion of the alloy 6 is satisfactory if the value is within + or -30% of the coefft. of thermal expansion of the aluminum alloy used for the magnetic disc. The change in the position of a transducer for data and a transducer for servocontrol owing to the thermal expansion thereof is made roughly the same as the change in the track position of the magnetic disc owing to the thermal expansion thereof, by which the thermal off track is lessened considerably.

Conventionally, the servo surface servo method has been the mainstream for magnetic disk drives, but in this servo surface servo method, the servo disk and data disk are placed on separate disk plates, so positioning may be difficult due to differences in ambient temperature. There was a risk of errors in accuracy. This servo surface servo system has disadvantages such as the positioning error of the magnetic head increases as the track density increases, making it difficult to increase the track density and making it difficult to achieve high recording density. was.

In recent magnetic disk drives, various data surface servo systems are being considered to improve head positioning accuracy.
In particular, data surface servo methods include a sector servo method that uses part of the data surface, a method that uses the data information itself, and a method that uses a magnetic double layer disk with the lower magnetic film as the servo information medium and uses that information. It is being considered.

The sector servo method divides one track into sectors and partially inserts servo information, but it has the drawback that track servo is not possible in areas other than the areas where servo information is input. Therefore, the positioning accuracy is insufficient at high track densities. Furthermore, the servo method that uses data information itself as servo information has the disadvantage that a fluctuation in the output envelope of data information causes a positioning error because the data information itself is used.

Furthermore, in the servo system that uses two layers of magnetic films, the upper layer is used for data information and the lower layer is used for servo information, and data and servo information are simultaneously detected and separated into one data. The positioning error is small because it is used with However, in the servo system using this magnetic double layer medium, when data information and servo information are simultaneously detected by one data head, separation of data information and servo information during playback is easily performed using a filter. However, when recording, a filter and a bias circuit are required in the recording circuit to detect the servo information, resulting in a fairly complex circuit configuration. It also has the disadvantage of increasing costs. To solve this problem, as a thin-film magnetic head for buried servo method, we placed a data transducer on one of the two rails of the same slider and a servo transducer on the other rail, one for data and one for length. There is a method of separating the transducer and preventing deterioration of the 84 during recording. However, in that case, the conventional slider material is alumina titanium carbide (abbreviated as AlT).
i0), and an aluminum alloy is used as the magnetic disk substrate. Therefore, when trying to further improve the positioning accuracy of the magnetic head, the difference in thermal expansion of this material (the coefficient of thermal expansion of the sly I' material (AI Tio) is 7.8 x 10-'/°C, which is different from that of the normal magnetic disk).

According to the present invention, the material of the slider of the thin film magnetic head other than the two rails is made of an aluminum alloy having a coefficient of thermal expansion within ±30 degrees of the coefficient of thermal expansion of the substrate of the magnetic disk. Changes in position due to thermal expansion of the transducer and servo transducer can be made almost the same as changes in track position due to thermal expansion of the magnetic disk, and thermal off-track can be significantly reduced.
