Abstract
In a narrow magnetoresistive head having a magnetic domain control film comprising a single layer of magnetic film or magnetic films antiferromagnetically coupled by means of a nonmagnetic member, it has been found that the magnetic domain can be controlled with a smaller magnetization film thickness product than anticipated so far and the range is defined relative to the geometrical track width in the present invention. By defining the magnetization film thickness product of the magnetic domain control film within a prescribed range of the invention, a magnetic head having higher output than usual and having stable output with no hysteresis in the transfer curve and with no output fluctuation can be attained.
