Abstract: A slider configured for heat-assisted magnetic recording includes a laser diode optically coupled to a waveguide of the slider. A power supply is coupled to the laser diode. A preamplifier is coupled to the power supply. The preamplifier is configured to monitor a forward voltage across the laser diode while operating the laser diode at a constant current during a write operation, detect a change in the forward voltage indicative of laser power instability, and generate a signal in response to detecting the forward voltage change.

Abstract: An apparatus with a slider body, a laser diode, and an isolator element. The slider body has an optical pathway extending therealong. The laser diode is configured to emit light along the optical pathway. The isolator element is disposed in the optical pathway to reduce optical feedback along the optical pathway back to the laser diode. In some embodiments, the isolator element is disposed in the optical pathway between the laser diode and the slider body.

Abstract: A Bragg grating external cavity laser apparatus may comprise the combination of a slider and an external cavity laser. The slider includes a waveguide that delivers light to a recording media. The external cavity laser includes an active region with a reflective back facet and a front facet that is externally coupled to the waveguide of the slider. The external cavity laser additionally includes a Bragg grating within the waveguide of the slider where the reflective back facet and the Bragg grating operate to define a single resonator within the external cavity.

Abstract: A method and apparatus provide for determining a temperature at a junction of a laser diode when the laser diode is operated in a lasing state that facilitates heat-assisted magnetic recording, comparing the junction temperature and an injection current supplied during the lasing state to stored combinations of junction temperature and injection current, and determining a likelihood of mode hopping occurring for the laser diode during the lasing state based on the comparison to stored combinations of junction temperature and injection current.

Abstract: A recording head includes a layer of plasmonic metal deposited on a surface of the recording head. One or more non-self-supporting layers of crystalline material are attached to the plasmonic metal, the one or more layers of crystalline materials configured to form an active region of a laser. A waveguide is configured to receive plasmons from the laser and direct the plasmons to a recording medium.
