Abstract :
The magnetic behaviour of thin film record and reproduce heads has been tested by measurements on the wafer; an "extra" turn was integrated in the magnetic yoke. Domain structures were visualized by using a ferrofluid solution. The domain structure depends on track width, which affects on the permeability and saturation current of the head.
