Claims
- 1. A magnetic head core comprising:
- a plurality of ferrite core elements bonded together through solid-solid reaction to form a substantially annular structure, wherein said structure has a magnetic gap of a predetermined width formed therein which is defined by two opposed portions of the ferrite core elements, said magnetic gap extending in a direction across the annulus of said structure; and p1 a non-magnetic layer consisting essentially of SiO or SiO.sub.2 interposed between the opposed portions so as to define the predetermined width of said magnetic gap and for preventing an oxidation reduction reaction during the solid-solid reaction bonding of the ferrite core elements.
- 2. The magnetic head core of claim 1, wherein said non-magnetic layer is formed on one of the two opposed portions such that said non-magnetic layer protrudes from a surface thereof.
- 3. The magnetic head core of claim 1, wherein one of two opposed portions has a recess formed in a surface thereof which is opposite to a surface of the other of the two opposed portions, said non-magnetic layer being embedded in said recess so as to be substantially flush with said surface of one of the two opposed portions.
- 4. The magnetic head core of claim 1, wherein said non-magnetic layer has a thickness substantially equal to the predetermined width of said magnetic gap.
- 5. The magnetic head core of claim 1, wherein variation in the predetermined width of said magnetic gap is .+-.0.02 .mu.m.
- 6. A magnetic head core comprising:
- a plurality of ferrite core elements bonded together through solid-solid reaction bonding to form a substantially annular structure, said structure having a magnetic gap of a predetermined width formed therein which is defined by two opposed portions of the ferrite core elements, and said magnetic gap extending in a direction across the annulus of said structure; and
- a non-magnetic layer consisting essentially of SiO or SiO.sub.2 interposed between the two opposed portions so as to define the predetermined width of said magnetic gap;
- wherein the ferrite core elements are produced by providing one of the two opposed portions with said non-magnetic layer, butting together the ferrite core elements such that said non-magnetic layer is interposed between the two opposed portions, and heating the ferrite core elements by solid-solid reaction bonding, while said non-magnetic layer prevents an oxidation-reduction reaction of the two opposed portions during the solid-solid reaction bonding of the ferrite core elements.
- 7. The magnetic head core of claim 6, wherein said non-magnetic layer is formed on one of the two opposed portions such that said non-magnetic layer protrudes from a surface thereof.
- 8. The magnetic head core of claim 6, wherein one of the two opposed portions has a recess formed in a surface thereof which is opposite to a surface of the other of the tow opposed portions, said non-magnetic layer being embedded in said recess so as to be substantially flush with said surface of one of the two opposed portions.
- 9. The magnetic head core of claim 6, wherein said non-magnetic layer has a thickness substantially equal to the predetermined width of said magnetic gap.
- 10. The magnetic head core of claim 6, wherein variation in the predetermined width of said magnetic gap is .+-.0.02 .mu.m.
