Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent the peeling of the upper magnetic film of a head by disposing a peeling preventing film between a protective film and an inductive head even if a thermal stress is increased by the forming of the finer head. SOLUTION: The magneto-resistive head for reproduction is constituted by a magneto-resistive sensor 19 held by a lower shield 2 and an upper shield 4 on a substrate 18. An inductive head for recording is constituted of a coil conductor 12 held by the upper shield 4 and the upper magnetic film 9 and coil insulating films 6, 7, 8 of a resist material. The peeling preventive film 10 consisting of a photoresist material or polyimide material is disposed at an adequate film thickness (for example, several μm) between the protective film 11 and the inductive head. These materials have a relatively smaller Young' s modulus tan the protective film 12 and a larger coefft. of thermal expansion and, therefore, the thermal stress generated by the protective film 12 in the process of heating up during the production stage and the intrinsic stress of the protective film 12 are relieved and the peeling of the upper magnetic film 9 is prevented.

It is known that when a thin film is formed by sputtering or the like, a stress called intrinsic stress is generated. Furthermore, in the head manufacturing process, there is a step of raising the temperature to about 200 ° C. in a step such as annealing in a magnetic field, and a large thermal stress is generated in that step. Due to the intrinsic stress and the thermal stress, peeling of the film may occur during the manufacturing process, which affects the yield.

The causes of peeling of the upper magnetic film are the intrinsic stress generated by the formation of the thin film and the thermal stress generated when the temperature becomes high during the manufacturing process. Peeling due to thermal stress, at high temperatures, the metal film such as the upper magnetic film, or the coil insulating film to ensure insulation between the upper magnetic film and the coil conductor of the inductive head, expands due to thermal expansion, Since the alumina protective film in the outermost layer has a smaller linear expansion coefficient and a smaller expansion amount than these materials, it contracts at a relatively high temperature. As a result, the upper magnetic film other than the protective film is formed. This occurs because tensile stress is generated in the direction in which the film is to be peeled off, or in the direction perpendicular to the surface on which the film is laminated.

The reason why peeling occurs even if the intrinsic stress is reduced as in Document 1 is that the thermal stress has increased due to the miniaturization of the head. The present invention prevents peeling by providing a peeling prevention film between the protective film and the inductive head.

The material of the peeling-preventing film is a material having a smaller Young's modulus than the protective film and a larger linear expansion coefficient than the protective film. The peel-prevention film acts as a stress buffer due to its small Young's modulus, and at the same time, has a large linear expansion coefficient, which thermally expands during the high temperature process in the manufacturing process, and suppresses the peeling by holding down the film to be peeled. Work. Alternatively, the peeling-preventing film must be a material that has a certain degree of adhesion to the contacting films and does not peel off.

Between the lower shield 2 and the upper shield 4, there is a reproducing magnetoresistive sensor 19 made of a thin film of several tens of nm such as NiFe. The portion sandwiched between the upper shield 4 and the upper magnetic film 9 including the upper shield 4 and the upper magnetic film 9 is the inductive head for recording, and the lower shield 2 and the upper shield 4 including the lower shield 2 and the upper shield 4.

FIG. 6 is a partial cross-sectional view corresponding to FIG. 1, and FIG. 7 is a partial enlarged view corresponding to FIG.
Shown in In the conventional thin film magnetic head, there is no separation preventing film between the protective film 11 and the inductive head. Therefore, when the temperature rises during the manufacturing process and the protective film 11 relatively contracts as shown in FIG. 14 due to a difference in linear expansion coefficient, a force for peeling the upper magnetic film 9 acts, and peeling occurs.

On the other hand, in the thin-film magnetic head according to the present invention, the peeling suppressing film 10 suppresses the peeling. As described above, the peeling prevention film 10 is a material having a smaller Young's modulus than the protective film and a larger linear expansion coefficient than the protective film. Since the peeling-preventing film 10 has a small Young's modulus, the thermal stress generated by the protective film during the high temperature process during the manufacturing process,
In addition, it functions as a stress buffering material for alleviating the influence of the intrinsic stress of the protective film, and at the same time, has a large linear expansion coefficient, so that it expands at a high temperature and suppresses the film to be peeled, thereby suppressing the peeling. Further, since the Young's modulus is small, it is less likely that an unnecessary stress is generated to cause other adverse effects. However, the peeling-preventing film 10 must be made of a material that has a certain degree of adhesion to the contacting films and does not cause peeling of the film itself.

For example, the interface 22 between the lower shield 2 and the insulating film 3 (FIG. 7)
However, peeling may occur at high temperatures, but peeling of this portion can also be suppressed.

As a specific material of the peeling prevention film 10, a resin material such as a photoresist material or a polyimide film is a candidate. The photoresist material satisfies the requirements for Young's modulus and coefficient of linear expansion, as well as the requirements for adhesion. At the same time, the photoresist is a material generally used in the manufacturing process of the thin film magnetic head when forming the pattern of the thin film element.
It is a material also used as 7 and 8. Therefore, there is an advantage that it is not necessary to newly procure the current manufacturing equipment and materials. The polyimide film also satisfies the conditions of Young's modulus and linear expansion coefficient. The polyimide film is not a material generally used during the manufacturing process of the thin film magnetic head, but has an advantage that a stronger adhesive force can be expected than a photoresist material.

In order to suppress the peeling of the upper magnetic film 9 and the peeling of the interface 22 between the lower shield 2 and the insulating film 3, the peeling-preventing film 10 is provided on the entire surface of the head element pattern as shown in FIGS. It is not necessary to cover, and it suffices to cover in a range including a portion where peeling is to be prevented as in the application example of FIG. 9, FIG. 10 or FIG. Further, if the purpose is only to prevent peeling at the interface between the upper magnetic film 9 and the gap film 5, FIG.
2, a form in which only the tip of the upper magnetic film 9 is covered with the peel-off suppressing film 10 as in the application example of FIG. In these application examples, there is an advantage that the material used as the peeling prevention film can be reduced. Conversely, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, since the peeling prevention film is applied to the entire surface of the head element pattern, there is an advantage that it is not necessary to form a pattern and the formation is easy.

In each of the above-described embodiments and application examples, the peeling prevention film 10 is exposed on the surface perpendicular to the head element pattern surface, such as the air bearing surface. Therefore, the peeling prevention film 10 is a soft material having a small Young's modulus as compared with the other alumina film or metal film exposed on the surface. There is a risk that a step will occur. The step on the air bearing surface is undesirable because dust accumulates during operation and causes errors in recording and reproduction and causes failure. In addition, there is a possibility that the peeling-preventing film 10 absorbs moisture and adversely affects the head element. Therefore, as in the application examples of FIGS. 15 and 16, the peeling prevention film 10 is formed on the surface perpendicular to the head element pattern surface such as the air bearing surface.
There is a method of patterning so as not to be exposed and taking measures.
