Abstract

Provided is a thin-film magnetic head that can stably generate electromagnetic field with a desired frequency, even under the existence of significantly strong write field with frequently reversed direction. The head comprises an electromagnetic-field generating element between the first and second magnetic poles. The electromagnetic-field generating element comprises a spin-wave excitation layer provided adjacent to the first magnetic pole and having a magnetization with its direction varied according to external magnetic fields, for generating an high frequency electromagnetic field by an excitation of spin wave. And a magnetization of the spin-wave excitation layer is biased in a direction substantially perpendicular to its layer surface by a portion of magnetic field generated from the first magnetic pole, and pin-wave excitation current flows in the electromagnetic-field generating element in a direction from the second pole to the first pole.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a thin film magnetic head used in a microwave-assisted magnetic recording technique in which data is written to a part of a magnetic recording medium irradiated with microwaves, and to a magnetic recording method using the technique. Background technique [0002] In magnetic recording devices for higher recording densities, especially magnetic disk drives, the performance of thin-film magnetic heads needs to be further improved. As such a thin film magnetic head, a composite type thin film magnetic head having a stacked structure of a magnetoresistive (MR) element for reading data and an electromagnetic transducer for writing data is widely used at present. These elements perform read and write operations to a magnetic disk as a magnetic recording medium. [0003] In general, magnetic recording media are magnetically discontinuous in which magnetic particles are aggregated together. Generally, each magnetic particle h...
