2. Description of the Related Art Most of the conventional methods used in magnetic recording / reproducing apparatuses record / reproduce signals using a combination of a ring-type magnetic head and a longitudinal recording magnetic recording medium. A conventional method will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. First, as shown in FIG. 3, at the time of recording, a signal from a signal source 34 is amplified by a recording amplifier 35 and applied to a winding 33 of a magnetic head 32 composed of a magnetic core such as ferrite via a terminal 37. . As a result, magnetic flux is generated in the magnetic head core,
A leakage magnetic field is generated in the gap. Therefore, while the magnetic head and the magnetic tape 30 move relative to each other, the magnetic tape is magnetized by the leakage magnetic field and forms a locus 31 thereof. At the time of reproduction, the magnetic flux generated from the recorded magnetization is reproduced as a signal voltage in the winding by controlling the head to travel on the same locus. Then apply the voltage to terminal 38
Is transmitted to and amplified by the regenerative amplifier 36, and then transmitted to the subsequent signal processing circuit.

Further, FIG. 4 shows the head cylinder portion of the VTR. The magnetic tape 42 is wound around the fixed cylinder 45 and the rotary cylinder 39 between the running posts 40 and 41 by a fixed angle and runs. On the other hand, the magnetic head 44 mounted on the rotary cylinder scans the magnetic tape at a speed of about 1800 rotations with a predetermined amount of protrusion from the window 43. By scanning in this manner, a signal locus is formed obliquely.

The above-mentioned improvement in recording density has been achieved over an extremely long period of time by improving the magnetic tape and the head. That is, the pursuit of shortening the recording wavelength and narrowing the usable area of the magnetic recording medium in the track width direction has been advanced while improving the SN ratio of the head / tape system. However, in order to achieve even greater recording density, new recording and playback methods are needed,
The method seeks to achieve this.

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention provides a signal recorded on a magnetic recording medium such that a tunnel current generated between a stylus made of a conductive magnetic material and a magnetic recording medium having a surface is constant.

With the above configuration, the present method using the stylus and the tunnel current of the magnetic recording medium can detect extremely fine magnetization and greatly improve the recording density.
For example, as described in "Lubrication" vol.33, No.8, pp.603-607, in a tunnel microscope, in principle, in-plane
It is stated that it has a resolution of 1 A and 0.1 A in the vertical direction. The present invention also has similar resolution, and when a conductive stylus is brought close to the surface of a conductive magnetic recording medium up to about 10 A, a tunnel current begins to flow, and the magnetization recorded on the recording medium exists. Then, the stylus, which is a magnetic body, is displaced by receiving a force. However, the control voltage is changed by controlling the tunnel current to be kept constant (the distance between the magnetic recording medium and the stylus is kept constant). By detecting this, the signal magnetization on the magnetic recording medium can be detected. Further, in the present invention, by further configuring the stylus, the magnetic core closely arranged to the stylus, and the perpendicular recording medium so as to form a closed magnetic path, the force received from the magnetization is increased,
The sensitivity is further improved.

By controlling the tunnel current to be constant, the stylus is scanned while always maintaining a constant interval. While scanning in this way, the signal from the signal source 9 is amplified by the amplifier 7 and applied to the winding wire 17 provided on the core 18 made of a magnetic material such as ferrite, thereby applying a magnetic field to the tip of the stylus of the magnetic material. Then, the Co-Cr film is magnetized. During reproduction, the stylus, which is a magnetic material, receives a force from the surface of the magnetic recording medium by the magnetic field generated by the recorded magnetization. Therefore, by receiving a force, the stylus tries to approach the surface of the magnetic recording medium. However, the control voltage changes by keeping the distance between the magnetic recording medium and the stylus constant, that is, by controlling the tunnel current to be constant. That is, the present invention detects the signal magnetic field generated from the magnetization by detecting the control voltage. Therefore, the change in tunnel current between the stylus and the magnetic recording medium is magnified by the tunnel current amplifier 3, and the tunnel current changes extremely sensitively to minute changes in the interval. Converted to scale.

After that, the servo circuit 5 determines the control amount applied to the piezoelectric element for fine adjustment of the gap between the magnetic recording medium and the stylus by comparing with the voltage of the constant voltage power source 8. By this control signal, the piezo driving power source 10 drives the piezo in a predetermined amount in addition to the pair of electrodes 12 and 12 arranged on both surfaces of the piezo element. As a result, fine adjustment was made in the vertical direction (z-axis direction) as indicated by arrow 14, and the gap between the magnetic recording medium and the stylus was controlled to be constant.

By applying the voltage, the direction of the arrow 16 or 15 is changed, and a small amount of movable control is performed.

Then, the measurement was performed by changing to 15 directions.

FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of the vicinity of the stylus and the arrangement of the magnetic recording medium. The magnetic recording medium 1 is obtained by polishing a non-magnetic substrate 24 such as A1 to finish its surface to 30 Å or less, and a soft magnetic film made of permalloy or the like on the surface.
23, and a vertical film 25 such as Co—Cr is formed by sputtering or vapor deposition. The stylus 2 brought into contact with the surface of the Co-Cr film is fixed to a V-shaped leaf spring 26 of non-magnetic beryllium copper or the like, and one end of the spring is fixed to a non-magnetic and conductive support portion 27. . This support is inserted into the hole formed in the holder 19 of FIG. 1 and the stylus is set.

On the other hand, 18 is a magnetic core made of ferrite or the like, which has a sufficiently large area facing the magnetic recording medium. A strong magnetic field is generated at the tip of the stylus by passing a signal current through the winding wire 17 formed on the magnetic core.
Magnetize the layers. In FIG. 2, as the stylus runs toward the left side of the paper, a locus 28 of magnetization is formed. During recording, the generated magnetic flux 29 forms a closed magnetic path by the soft magnetic layer 23 such as permalloy, the magnetic core 18 and the stylus which is a magnetic body, so that the magnetic flux 29 can be efficiently recorded even with a minute current. At this time, the area of the magnetic core with respect to the magnetic recording medium is sufficiently large so that the magnetic core is not magnetized.
