    摘要: A method for finishing a pole tip trimmed read/write heat that includes a substrate with a pole tip structure having a shield, a shield/pole, and an outer pole. A gap region separates the pole and the shield/pole. First, pole tip trimming is performed to the read/write head to remove matter from the shield/pole, the pole, and the gap region. This defines a bridge composed of inward-facing extensions of the pole and shield/pole interconnected by an intervening region. This bridge separates recessed “trenches,” each formed by removing a contiguous mass from the shield/pole, the gap region, and the pole. Next, an overlayer is applied over the pole tip structure, filling the recessed trenches. The coated structure is then trimmed to remove all coating material overlying the shield/pole and pole. Trimming is continued to additionally remove a top layer of the protrusions of the pole and shield/pole to remove any rounded edges created by pole tip patterning, resulting in a more distinct write head. The refilled trenches of the recessed areas impart improved resistance to corrosive attack, to head-crashes from the release of accumulated debris, and to mechanical damage of the trimmed pole-tip structure.

    摘要: A thin film lead structure resistant to resistance increase phenomenon resulting from contamination by mobile impurities. A thin film lead is disposed proximate to a getter layer material having a higher affinity for mobile impurities that the thin film lead. The getter layer material captures mobile impurities and prevents their migration into the thin film lead. The getter layer material may be formed over and in contact with the thin film lead, may be encapsulated within the thin film lead, or both. The getter layer material comprises a rare earth metal selected from the group consisting of yttrium, scandium, lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, and ytterbium. The thin film lead is preferably tantalum, but may be selected from the group consisting of niobium, vanadium, chromium, molybdenum, tungsten and iron. An alternate embodiment of the invention includes a transition metal comprising titanium, zirconium, or hafnium as the getter layer. The capture of mobile impurities by the getter layer prevents resistance increase phenomenon and embrittlement to the thin film lead. The thin film lead may be used as a thin film lead to an electrical circuit, the sensor structure in a magnetic head.

    摘要: A monitoring system having a stylus mounted to a support that controllably moves the stylus along a travel path as it contacts an object of interest. The object is supported by a rotating turntable and held in place by a manually actuatable retainer that exerts a repeatable downward force on the object. A frame that supports the stylus is supported by a flexure plate that makes the task of orienting the frame easier. The frame supports a saddle that can be raised and lowered by a belt system driven by a D.C. pancake motor. The entire monitoring system achieves a required degree of accuracy in monitoring object shape at a reduced manufacturing cost.

    摘要: A magnetoresistive read sensor incorporates a multilayer sensing element formed of one or more magnetoresistive elements in a planar array, each magnetoresistive element having a multilayer structure of at least two ferromagnetic layers separated by a nonmagnetic layer. The ferromagnetic layers are coupled antiferromagnetically by magnetostatic coupling at opposing edges of the ferromagnetic layers. A bias layer separated from the magnetoresistive sensing element by a spacer layer provides a magnetic field to bias the magnetoresistive sensing element at a desired non-signal point for linear response. The magnetoresistive sensing element is formed by alternatively depositing layers of ferromagnetic material and layers of nonmagnetic material on a substrate and then patterning the resulting structure using photolithographic techniques to provide a planar array of magnetoresistive elements. A conductive layer is deposited over the array filling in the spaces separating the magnetoresistive elements to provide electrical conductivity between the elements in the plane of the structure.
