    摘要: A magnetic transducer including an electrically conductive shield (ECS) which is disposed between the substrate and first magnetic shield is described. The ECS is preferably embedded in an insulating undercoat layer. The ECS is preferably electrically isolated from the magnetic sensor element and is externally connected to a ground available in the disk drive through the arm electronics. Two alternative ways for connecting the ECS to a ground are described. In one embodiment which is only effective with single-ended input type arm electronics, the ECS is connected to a ground through a via to a lead pad for the read head which is connected to the ground of the arm electronics. In a second and more preferred embodiment a separate lead pad is included on the head to allow the ECS to be connected to electronic or case ground when the head is installed in the arm. The extent of the ECS should be sufficiently large to cover the read head portion of the transducer, i.e., from the edge of the first magnetic shield to the outer edges of the read contact pads, but should preferably not cover the write head pads.

    摘要: A method and system provide a magnetic junction usable in a magnetic device. The magnetic junction includes a pinned layer, a nonmagnetic spacer layer, a free layer, at least one insulating layer, and at least one magnetic insertion layer adjoining the at least one insulating layer. The nonmagnetic spacer layer is between the pinned layer and the free layer. The at least one insulating layer is adjacent to at least one of the free layer and the pinned layer. The at least one magnetic insertion layer adjoins the at least one insulating layer. In some aspects, the insulating layer(s) include at least one of magnesium oxide, aluminum oxide, tantalum oxide, ruthenium oxide, titanium oxide, and nickel oxide The magnetic junction is configured such that the free layer is switchable between a plurality of stable magnetic states when a write current is passed through the magnetic junction.

    摘要: A method and system for providing a magnetic junction usable in a magnetic device are described. The magnetic junction includes a pinned layer, a plurality of nonmagnetic spacer layers, and a plurality of free layers. The free layers are interleaved with the nonmagnetic spacer layers. A first nonmagnetic spacer layer of the nonmagnetic spacer layers is between the free layers and the pinned layer. Each of the free layers is configured to be switchable between stable magnetic states when a write current is passed through the magnetic junction. Each of the free layers has a critical switching current density. The critical switching current density of one of the free layers changes monotonically from the critical switching current density of an adjacent free layer. The adjacent free layer is between the pinned layer and the one of the plurality of free layers.
