摘要:
A magnetic recording head includes a magnetic recording write element including a main pole having a leading edge and an opposing trailing edge and a first side surface and a second side surface separating the leading edge from the trailing edge. A first side shield gap separates a first side shield from the first side of the main pole and a second side shield gap separates the second side shield from the second side of the main pole. A front magnetic shield is separated from the main pole trailing edge by a front shield gap. A recess extends into the front shield adjacent to the trailing edge, and parallel to the trailing edge. The recess extends laterally away from the main pole and into the front shield a distance greater than the first side shield gap or second side shield gap.

A magnetic shield may be capable of enhancing magnetic writing, particularly in transducing elements accessing data bits from data tracks. At least one magnetic shield is adjacent a write pole. The shield has a flux concentration feature on an air bearing surface (ABS) capable of enhancing magnetic undershoot between the shield and the write pole.

A magnetic recording head includes a magnetic recording write element including a main pole having a leading edge, an opposing trailing edge, a first side surface and a second side surface. A first side magnetic shield is positioned adjacent the first side surface and a second side magnetic shield positioned adjacent to the second side surface. First and second side shields are separated from the main pole by a first and second side shield gap. A front magnetic shield is separated from the main pole trailing edge by a front shield gap. A recess extends into the front shield adjacent to the trailing edge, and parallel to the trailing edge, and extends laterally away from the main pole and into the front shield a distance greater than the first or second side shield gap.

A data storage system includes recording media with a shingled track pattern of multiple data tracks in which mapped data bits are recorded. The mapped data are coherently aligned with one another across the multiple data tracks. A read head has an effective read head width that extends across the multiple data tracks and that is aligned to coherently read the mapped data bits. A read head output includes a non-binary multi-level amplitude summation of the mapped data bits.

A recording media design having discrete track recording structure where the trenches between tracks are filled with a soft magnetic material is provided. The soft magnetic material provides a low magnetic impedance path to the soft underlayer such that fringe fields from the write head are conducted to the soft underlayer without having a negative effect such as adjacent track erasure. A method of manufacturing the media includes a nano-imprint step and ion milling out the data layer to create the trenches. A B2O3 material allows the data layer to be ion milled out without redeposition bridging the B2O3 layer thus preventing lift off of the mask. The trenches are then filled by ion deposition with the layers of ferromagnetic material separated by an anti-ferromagnetic coupling that causes the flux to be conducted to the soft underlayer and remnant flux to rotate within the island and not into adjacent tracks.

An apparatus having a write head for writing data on to a recording medium comprises a recording disk medium and one or more ferromagnetic islands. The recording disk medium has a data layer in discrete tracks with trenches between the discrete tracks, and a soft underlayer beneath the data layer and the trenches. The one or more ferromagnetic islands are disposed in the trenches between the discrete tracks in the recording disk medium and over the soft underlayer. The one or more ferromagnetic islands comprise a first layer having a first magnetization direction and a second layer having a second magnetization direction that is different than the first magnetization direction.

A write head includes a write return yoke, a write yoke connected to the write return yoke, conductive coils surrounding the write yoke, a write pole tip, and a non-magnetic spacer connecting the write pole tip to the write yoke. The non-magnetic spacer allows for reducing a magnetization of the write pole tip due to a remnant magnetic field in the write yoke. In another embodiment, the write head comprises a write shield, a write return yoke, a write yoke, conductive coils, a write pole tip, and a saturable yoke shunt connecting the write pole tip and the write shield. The saturable yoke shunt directs a limited amount of magnetic flux from the write pole tip to the write shield, such that when there is a remnant magnetic field in the write pole tip, the magnetic flux is directed to the write shield rather than to a disk.

A magnetic storage system includes a magnetic storage medium and a transducer positioned adjacent the magnetic storage medium. The transducer has a reader positioned adjacent writer and a reader bias coil located on the transducer. Transducer circuitry is configured to apply a bias signal to the reader bias coil during a read-write operation. The reader bias coil generates a reader bias field proximate the reader.
摘要:
A magnetic recording medium having a soft magnetic underlayer structure that includes two soft underlayers is presented. A thick first soft underlayer, disposed on the medium substrate, is made of material which provides a low magnitude of magnetization saturation (Bsat) and high permeability. The first soft underlayer can be formed by plating or high-rate sputtering. The second soft underlayer, which has a lesser thickness than the first soft underlayer, is made of a material which provides a relatively high magnitude of Bsat and low permeability. The second soft underlayer can be formed by low-rate sputtering. The first soft under layer can be isolated from other layers in the medium by an exchange isolation layer. The second soft underlayer can be exchange coupled to a radial exchange pin layer disposed on the exchange isolation layer.

A write pole for a read/write head of a disk drive system has a tapered surface on a leading edge thereof. Preferably, the tapered surface has a taper angle of between 0 and 20 degrees from a plane normal to the ABS. By having a write pole with a taper in this manner, sufficient write fields can be achieved even with thinner write pole tips on the ABS surface. By decreasing the thickness of the write pole tip in this manner while maintaining sufficiently high write fields, the skew profile of a write head can be decreased and areal density increased.
