    摘要: Thin film perpendicular magnetic head with a narrow main pole capable of a high recording density in excess of 100 gigabits per square inch and generating a high magnetic recording field exceeding 10 kOe while suppressing remanent magnetic fields occurring immediately after write operations. The perpendicular magnetic head comprises a main pole, a return path for supplying a magnetic flux to that main pole, and a conductive coil for excitation of the main pole and return path. The main pole has a pole width of 200 nanometers or less, and a magnetic multilayer made up of a high saturation flux density layer and low saturation flux density layer. The low saturation flux density layer has a thickness within 0.5 to 5 nanometers, and The high saturation flux density layer has a thickness from 10 to 50.

    摘要: In a partial-response maximum-likelihood (PRML) signal detection and processing technique, reduction of data detection error events caused due to medium noise is achieved. For a PRML detection data result obtained after PRML data demodulation, a code error event that depends on a signal distance, and which has a high frequency of occurrence, is noticed and its occurrence probability is estimated. A locally-existing medium noise quantity is estimated from preceding and subsequent code patterns of the PRML detection data result. Based on this, the occurrence probability of the error event is compensated to improve the detection precision. As a result, data modulation with reliability higher than conventional maximum likelihood detection can be realized with a simple circuit structure.

    摘要: Embodiments of the invention provide a magnetic head which prevents data on a recording medium from being erased even when a stray field is applied. In one embodiment, an auxiliary pole is sandwiched between a stray-field shield composed of a magnetic layer recessed from the air bearing surface and a main pole. The stray-field shield may be formed on the leading side of the auxiliary pole. A face of the stray-field shield on a medium side may be recessed from an air-bearing-surface of the magnetic head.

The hard-disk drive includes a phase-detecting unit which is configured to detect a phase of the write-clock signal when the magnetic-recording head reaches an end point of a predetermined range. The hard disk drive includes a determination-processing unit which is configured to determine success of data writing based on a difference between an expected value and a detected value of the phase of the write-clock signal.
