Abstract: A thin film magnetic head includes lower and upper magnetic cores, an upper magnetic core distal end portion, a magnetic gap layer, coil layers, and insulating layers. The lower magnetic core has a distal end portion facing a magnetic head floating surface. The upper magnetic core distal end portion opposes the distal end portion of the lower magnetic core through a magnetic gap. The lower magnetic core and the upper magnetic head distal end portion are heated at a temperature T1 to have a saturation magnetic flux density BS1. The upper magnetic core magnetically connects the lower magnetic core and the upper magnetic core distal end portion to constitute a magnetic core and is heated at a temperature T2 to have a saturation magnetic flux density BS2. Note that T2<T1 and BS2<BS1. The nonmagnetic layer is formed between the lower and upper magnetic cores to constitute the magnetic gap.
