Abstract

Abstract A magnetic head having a sputter-deposited glass film of the gap forming area of the magnetic core, said glass film being made of borosilicate glass having the composition consisting of 65-85 mol % of SiO 2 , 8-30 mol % of B 2 O 3 and containing 2-15 mol % of alkali metal oxide Na 2 O and K 2 O and 0.1-5 mol % of Al 2 O 3 , with the molar ratio of boron oxide to alkali metal oxides being defined by the following formula: ##EQU1## The magnetic head provides sharpness of the recording leakage flux, thus giving excellent electromagnetic conversion characteristics.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 151 words
A method of producing a magnetic head in which a glass film is formed by sputter deposition on the gap opposing faces of at least one of two unilateral magnetic core pieces, said glass film being made of borosilicate glass having the composition of 65 to 85 mol % SiO 2 and 8 to 30 mol % B 2 O 3 and containing 2 to 15 mol % of alkali metal oxides Na 2 O and K 2 O and 0.1 to 5 mol % of Al 2 O 3 , with the molar ratio of boron oxide to alkali metal oxides being defined by: ##EQU5## and then said two unilateral magnetic core pieces are butted against each other with said sputter-deposited glass film interposed therebetween and bonded together by heating at a temperature which is higher than transition point of said sputter glass film and lower than yielding point thereof.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 151 words
A method of producing a magnetic head in which a glass film is formed by sputter deposition on the gap opposing faces of at least one of two unilateral magnetic core pieces, said glass film being made of borosilicate glass having the composition of 65 to 85 mol % SiO 2 and 8 to 30 mol % B 2 O 3 and containing 2 to 15 mol % of alkali metal oxides Na 2 O and K 2 O and 0.1 to 5 mol % of Al 2 O 3 , with the molar ratio of boron oxide to alkali metal oxides being defined by: ##EQU5## and then said two unilateral magnetic core pieces are butted against each other with said sputter-deposited glass film interposed therebetween and bonded together by heating at a temperature which is higher than transition point of said sputter glass film and lower than yielding point thereof.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 162 words
A method of producing a magnetic head according to claim 1, in which two layers of thin films with different compositions are formed by sputter deposition on the gap opposing faces of at least one of the two unilateral magnetic core piece, said second layer film being made of borosilicate glass having the composition of 65 to 85 mol % SiO 2 and 8 to 30 mol % B 2 O 3 and containing 2 to 15 mol % of alkali metal oxides Na 2 O and K 2 O and 0.1 to 5 mol % of Al 2 O 3 , with the molar ratio of boron oxide to alkali metal oxides being defined by: ##EQU6## and then said two unilateral magnetic core pieces are butted against each other with said films interposed therebetween and bonded together by heating at a temperature which is higher then transition point of said second layer sputter glass film and lower than yielding point thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
A method of producing a magnetic head according to claim 2, in which the first layer film is composed of SiO 2 .
