    摘要: A plasmon generator has a front end face located in a medium facing surface of a magnetic head. The plasmon generator includes a first portion formed of a first metal material and a second portion formed of a second metal material. The first portion has an inclined surface facing toward the front end face. The second portion is located between the inclined surface and the front end face, and includes a first end face located in the front end face and a second end face in contact with the inclined surface. The second metal material is higher in Vickers hardness than the first metal material. The first portion has a plasmon exciting part. The front end face generates near-field light.

    摘要: A thermally-assisted magnetic recording head includes a main pole, a waveguide, and a plasmon generator. The waveguide includes a core and a cladding. The plasmon generator is configured to excite a surface plasmon based on light propagating through the core. The plasmon generator has a front end face located in a medium facing surface, and a first inclined surface connected to the front end face and facing toward the medium facing surface. The main pole includes an interposition part interposed between the first inclined surface and the medium facing surface. The interposition part has a second inclined surface that is opposed to the first inclined surface with an insulating film interposed therebetween.

    摘要: A manufacturing method for a heat-assisted magnetic recording head includes the step of forming an internal mirror that includes a reflecting film support body and a reflecting film. The reflecting film support body includes first and second inclined surfaces. The reflecting film includes first and second portions that are located on the first and second inclined surfaces, respectively. The step of forming the internal mirror includes the step of forming the reflecting film support body and the step of forming the reflecting film. The step of forming the reflecting film support body forms an initial support body, and performs two taper-etching processes on the initial support body so that the initial support body is provided with the first and second inclined surfaces.

    摘要: A magnetic head includes a side shield layer and an encasing layer. The side shield layer has a first end face located in the medium facing surface, a second end face opposite to the first end face, and a first groove accommodating a portion of a pole layer. The first end face includes two portions located on both sides of an end face of the pole layer that are opposite to each other in a track width direction. The encasing layer is formed of a nonmagnetic material and disposed on a side of the side shield layer opposite to a medium facing surface. The encasing layer has a front end face touching the second end face of the side shield layer, and a second groove accommodating another portion of the pole layer. The distance from the medium facing surface to an arbitrary point on the second end face of the side shield layer decreases with decreasing distance from the arbitrary point to the top surface of a substrate.
