    摘要: A perpendicular magnetic write head having a conformal wrap around trailing shield. The write head includes a write pole that can be configured with a trapezoidal shape as viewed from the Air Bearing Surface (ABS) and which includes a wrap around trailing magnetic shield. The magnetic shield has a trailing portion that is separated from the leading edge of the writ pole by a non-magnetic trailing gap, and has side shield portions that are separated from first and second side portions of the write pole by first and second non-magnetic side gaps. The magnetic shield can be configured with notches at either side of the trailing portion of magnetic shield. These notches can extend in the trailing direction by a distance that is preferably ¼ to 1 times the trailing gap thickness. The width of the straight, trailing portion of the shield is preferable ½ to 1 times of the main pole width.

    摘要: A magnetic write head for perpendicular magnetic recording having a write pole with a concave trailing edge. The magnetic write pole can have a trapezoidal shape with first and second laterally opposed sides that are further apart at the trailing edge than at the leading edge. The write head may or may not include a magnetic trailing shield, and if a trailing shield is included it is separated from the trailing edge by a non-magnetic write gap layer. The concave trailing edge improves magnetic performance such as by improving the transition curvature. A method for constructing the write head includes forming a magnetic write pole by forming a mask structure over a deposited write pole material, the mask structure having an alumina hard mask and an image transfer layer such as DURAMIDE®. An alumina fill layer is then deposited and a chemical mechanical polish is performed to open up the image transfer layer. A reactive on etch is performed to remove the image transfer layer and a reactive ion mill or reactive ion etch is performed to remove the alumina hard mask and form a concave surface on the write pole.

    摘要: A magnetic write head for perpendicular magnetic recording that has write pole, a return pole and a trailing shield that is magnetically connected with magnetic return pole. The write head includes a magnetic pedestal and first and second magnetic studs that connect the trailing shield with the pedestal. The studs are laterally spaced a distance that is not greater than 5 um from the nearest side of the write pole. In other words, the studs are spaced from each other a distance that is no greater than the width of the leading edge of the write pole plus 10 um. This spacing of the studs prevents saturation of the trailing shield, maximizing field gradient and ensuring optimal magnetic write performance.

    摘要: A method for forming a via in an alumina protective layer on a structure such as a magnetic write head for use in perpendicular magnetic recording. A substrate such as an alumina fill layer, magnetic shaping layer, etc. is formed with region having a contact pad formed therein. A structure such as a magnetic pole, and or magnetic trailing shield, is formed over the substrate and is covered with a thick layer of alumina. The alumina can be applied by a high deposition rate process that does not form voids or seams in the alumina layer. The alumina layer can then be planarized by a chemical mechanical polishing process (CMP) and then a mask structure, such as a photoresist mask, is formed over the alumina layer. The mask structure is formed with an opening disposed over the contact pad. A reactive ion mill is then performed to remove portions of the alumina layer that are exposed at the opening in the mask, thereby forming a via in the alumina layer. The mask can then be lifted off and an electrically conductive material can be deposited into the via. Forming the via by a subtractive method rather than by a liftoff process allows the alumina to be deposited in a manner that does not result in voids. The use of reactive ion milling allows the via to be well defined and formed with substantially vertical side walls rather than in a conical or outward spreading fashion as would be formed by other material removal processes such as wet etching.
