    Abstract: A magnetic reproducing head and a magnetic recording head. The magnetic reproducing head includes a GMR or TMR magnetic sensor, and a flux guide for introducing a magnetic flux into the magnetic sensor. At least a portion of the flux guide includes a material which is capable of permitting the magnetic flux to pass therethrough at a temperature not lower than a predetermined temperature Tp, but not permitting the magnetic flux to pass therethrough at a temperature lower than Tp. Light is irradiated to only a portion of the flux guide to cause the temperature of the irradiated portion to rise up to Tp or more, thereby permitting a magnetic flux to pass only through the irradiated portion, thus narrowing the track width of magnetic reproducing head when detecting recorded information from the magnetic recording medium.

    Abstract: A magnetoresistive head has a substrate (1) and, on the substrate, a magnetoresistive film (40) for converting a magnetic signal into an electric signal by using magnetoresistance effects and a pair of electrodes (60) for causing a signal detection current to flow through the magnetoresistive film. A pair of first domain wall suppressing layers (30) are arranged at opposite end portions of the magnetoresistive film, respectively, to apply a longitudinal magnetic bias to the magnetoresistive film. A second domain wall suppressing layer (45) is also provided for applying a longitudinal magnetic bias, which is weaker compared with the longitudinal magnetic bias applied by the first domain wall suppressing layers, to the magnetoresistive film (40).
