    摘要: A magnetic head structure for use in perpendicular magnetic recording. The magnetic head includes a magnetic write head having a return pole with a magnetic shunt structure extending from the back end opposite the ABS. The magnetic shunt structure prevents magnetic field from the write coil from reaching and affecting the read head. More specifically the shunt structure prevents magnetic field from the portion of the write coil beyond the back gap (as measured from the ABS) from magnetizing a magnetic shield of the read head. The shunt structure is also configured so as to avoid stray field writing. The size and shape of the shunt structure is therefore, limited to avoid attracting stray fields that might cause such stray field writing.

    摘要: A magnetoresistive sensor having a shape enhanced pinning and a flux guide structure. First and second hard bias layers and lead layers extend from the sides of a sensor stack. The hard bias layers and leads have a stripe height that is smaller than the stripe height of a free layer, resulting in a free layer that extends beyond the back edge of the lead and hard bias layer. This portion of the free layer that extends beyond the back edge of the leads and hard bias layers provides a back flux guide. Similarly, the sensor may have a free layer that extends beyond the front edge of the lead and hard bias layers to provide a front flux guide. The pinned layer extends significantly beyond the back edge of the free layer, providing the pinned layer with a strong shape enhanced magnetic anisotropy.

    摘要: A magnetoresistive sensor having a shape enhanced pinning and a flux guide structure. The sensor includes a sensor stack with a pinned layer, spacer layer and pinned layer. First and second hard bias layers and lead layers extend from the sides of the sensor stack. The hard bias layers and leads have a stripe height that is smaller than the stripe height of the free layer, resulting in a free layer that extends beyond the back edge of the lead and hard bias layer. This portion of the free layer that extends beyond the back edge of the leads and hard bias layers provides a back flux guide. Similarly, the sensor may have a free layer that extends beyond the front edge of the lead and hard bias layers to provide a front flux guide. The pinned layer extends significantly beyond the back edge of the free layer, providing the pinned layer with a strong shape enhanced magnetic anisotropy. The sensor may have a lead over layer structure, with the sensor layers extending significantly beyond the inner ends of the leads, thereby moving the outer edges of the sensor layers outside of the track width of the sensor. This eliminates the effect of magnetic damage at the outer edges of the free layer.

    摘要: A magnetic structure for use in a magnetic head for avoiding stray field writing. The magnetic structure can be for example a magnetic shield or could be a magnetic pole of a write head and is particularly advantageous for use in a perpendicular recording system, because such perpendicular recording systems are especially susceptible to stray field writing. The magnetic structure includes a forward protruding portion that extends toward the air bearing surface (ABS) of the head also includes first and second wing portions that extend laterally from the forward protruding portion. The wing portions each have a front edge that is recessed from the ABS. The wings are tapered so that the amount of recess of the front edge of the wings increases with lateral distance from the center of the magnetic structure.

    摘要: A magnetoresistive sensor having an in stack bias structure and a pinned layer having shape enhanced anisotropy. The sensor may be a partial mill design wherein the track width of the sensor is defined by the width of the free layer and the pinned layers extend beyond the trackwidth of the sensor. The sensor has an active area defined by the stripe height of the free layer. The pinned layer extends beyond the stripe height defined by the free layer, thus providing the pinned layer with the shape enhanced anisotropy. The pinned layer structure can be pinned by exchange coupling with a layer of antiferromagnetic material (AFM) layer, with pinning robustness being improved by the shape enhanced anisotropy, or can be a self pinned structure which is pinned by a combination of magnetostriction, AP coupling and shape enhanced anisostropy.

    摘要: An improved magnetic head for a hard disk drive including a lead overlaid read head in which the read width and read gap are reduced. The read width, which corresponds to the distance between the inner ends of the overlaid electrical leads, is reduced by the fabrication of a thin read width insulation member prior to the fabrication of the overlaid electrical leads. The read gap is reduced by fabricating the overlaid electrical leads from a magnetic, electrically conductive material such as NiFe, whereby the overlaid electrical leads also function as a magnetic shield. The read gap, which is the distance between the first and second magnetic shields is thus reduced as compared to the prior art by the thickness of the electrical leads and the thickness of the prior art second insulation layer formed between the electrical leads and the second magnetic shield.

    摘要: A read head for a disk drive and a method of fabricating the read head with overlaid lead pads that contact the top surface of the sensor between the hardbias structures to define the electrically active region of the sensor are described. The invention deposits the GMR and lead layers before milling away the unwanted material. A photoresist mask with a hole defining the active area of the sensor is preferably patterned over a layer of DLC that is formed into a mask. A selected portion of the exposed lead material is then removed using the DLC as a mask defining the active region of the sensor. A photoresist mask pad is patterned to define the full sensor width. The excess sensor and lead material exposed around the mask is milled away. The layers for the hardbias structure are deposited.
