Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the transfer error of a bubble in an area in which a bias magnetic field is low and to enlarge the range of normal operation of a detector by placing a bubble transferring path for reading at right end where the convex side of a chevron stretcher faces is facing. CONSTITUTION:A bubble transferring path 1 for reading is placed at right end faces by the convex side of a chevron stretcher, and the direction of transfer is made equal to the direction of transfer of a bubble in a detector. In the case where the bubble elongates to the concave side of the chevron in the course of expansion gradually to a stripe magnetic domain, a phenomenon that the magnetic domain is folded into two hardly occurs, and transfer error does not occur even in an area where bias magnetic field is low, and the bubble arrives normally at the detector. The extended stripe magnetic domain is pushed up by a dummy stretcher 8.

In conventional magnetic bubble detectors, the bubble gradually expands from the center of the multi-bend chevron pattern shown in Figure 1 to the left and right, and then reaches the detection line consisting of interconnected chevron patterns (stripe magnetic domains). Bubble detection was carried out by utilizing the property that the magnetic resistance of the detection line changes when the
(described in Publication No. 83). However, as the density of magnetic bubble memory increases, the bubble diameter d becomes minute (storage density 4
6-1μm for Mb7ml, d~0.5μm for 16Mb/d
m) The force that drives the bubble with the magnetic poles of the chevron pattern is becoming smaller and smaller. Therefore, in order to strengthen the magnetic pole of the chevron pattern, methods such as increasing the pattern width and increasing the curvature of the multiple bends have become necessary. However, if a method is used in which the bubble is gradually expanded from side to side, the stripe end begins to extend along the multi-bend portion as shown in FIG. 1(b) immediately before the bubble expands. Then the rotating magnetic field 40
As the phase progresses, the magnetic pole at the edge of the chevron suddenly becomes stronger, leaving only the edge of the stripe in that area, resulting in the stripe domain being folded in two (Figure 1).
c) (cD. When the stripe magnetic domain is folded in two, the stripe magnetic domain is then split into two (Fig. 1(e)), and one of the stripe magnetic domains, 7, reaches the detection line with a delay in phase, resulting in a transfer error. It has been found that this erroneous bias magnetic field is noticeable in a relatively low range, and there is a problem in that it significantly narrows the operating bias magnetic field range.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a bubble detector suitable for high-density magnetic bubble memory devices. In other words, in a bubble detector consisting of a soft magnetic chevron stretcher with a pattern width and transfer period sufficient to drive microbubbles, bubble transfer errors that tend to occur in areas with low bias magnetic fields are prevented and normal operation is achieved. The object of the present invention is to provide a detector having a sufficiently wide bias magnetic field range.

In order to achieve the above objective, we have come to the conclusion that a simple and direct solution is to prevent the expansion of the bubble to the right in FIG. 1, which is the beginning of the error occurrence. As an example of a detector that expands only on one side, a method as shown in FIG. 2 (introducing a bubble from a direction perpendicular to the direction of transfer of the expansion section) is disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 57-50578. There is. However, this method will cause the bubble to extend in the same direction as in the case of FIG. 1, and is not a solution at all.

The transfer direction is the same as the transfer direction of bubbles (stripe magnetic domains) in the detector. In the process of the bubble gradually expanding into a striped magnetic domain, when the bubble extends toward the chevron recess, the phenomenon of the magnetic domain folding in two as described above is not observed at all. As a result, it became clear that even in the region where the bias magnetic field was low, the data could reach the detector without any transfer errors.

In this example, a detector structure was adopted in which an expansion part for the striped magnetic domain to gradually extend toward the left side of the chevron and a dummy stretcher 8 for pushing up the extended striped magnetic domain were used. It goes without saying that a structure in which a bubble transfer path for direct reading is arranged at the right end of a 100-stage stretcher has a similar effect.
