Abstract:
A data writer may be configured with at least a write pole and a continuous coil with the continuous coil having a first turn with a first cross-sectional shape and a second turn with a second cross-sectional shape that differs from the first cross-sectional shape. The second turn may be positioned proximal a leading edge of the write pole and an air bearing surface while the first turn is positioned distal the air bearing surface.
Abstract:
The present application relates to a write gap structure for a magnetic recording head. In illustrated embodiments, the write gap structure includes multiple write gap segments along a beveled pole tip surface between a top edge and a bottom edge of the beveled pole tip surface to provide a narrow write gap proximate to the air bearing surface and a larger write gap behind the air bearing surface. In illustrated embodiments, the narrow write gap segment is formed between the beveled pole tip surface and a lower back surface of front shield and the larger write gap is formed between the beveled pole tip surface and an upper back surface of the front shield.
Abstract:
A write head having a main pole having a pole tip proximate an air bearing surface (ABS), the main pole having a leading side and a trailing side. The write head also includes a yoke having a yoke tip recessed from the ABS, and a helical coil wrapped around the main pole and the yoke. The helical coil has a first turn with its front edge at least substantially aligned with the yoke tip.
Abstract:
A data writing device may be constructed and operated with at least a data writer that has at least a write pole and a magnetic feature. A controller may selectively activate the magnetic feature to magnetically oscillate and produce a radio frequency signal proximal the write pole on an air bearing surface (ABS).

Abstract:
In accordance with one embodiment, an apparatus includes a main pole layer of magnetic material; a second layer of magnetic material; a first gap layer of non-magnetic material disposed between the main pole layer and the second layer of magnetic material; a second gap layer of non-magnetic material disposed between the main pole layer and the second layer of magnetic material; wherein the second gap layer of non-magnetic material is disposed directly adjacent to the second layer of magnetic material. In accordance with one embodiment, this allows the gap to serve as a non-magnetic seed for the second layer of magnetic material. A method of manufacturing such a device is also described.
