Embodiments of the invention provide a manufacturing method for thin magnetic heads capable of achieving narrow tracks, preventing shape defects and electrical short defects, as well as improving the production yield. Shape defects and short defects can be reduced and a high production yield achieved even with a narrow track width by lift-off technology utilizing planarizing techniques with CMP for forming the track width and stripe height and employing a process and structure for positioning the CMP dummy film.

A method for manufacturing a magnetic head that is effective for the suppression of thermal protrusion. The magnetic head includes SiO2, Si nitride, or Si oxide as a coil insulator having a low coefficient of thermal expansion and high workability. The coil insulator is arranged at a position away from the air bearing surface and the air bearing surface is made of alumina, making slider processing easy.

A discrete track medium and a bit patterned medium with a high SNR are manufactured at low cost. A seed layer and a recoding layer are formed on a bottom surface and a side wall of a groove portion, which is formed between non-magnetic projected structures artificially patterned. Then, the recording layer on the projected portion is removed.

This invention provides a high-output magnetic head with a high yield, which is capable of minimizing sense current leak or noise caused by a shift of the magnetic wall of an upper shield layer. In one embodiment, the magnetic head is fabricated so that the height of the upper surface of the refill film along the sensor height direction is the same as that of the magnetoresistance layer in a portion where the refill film along the sensor height direction comes in contact with the magnetoresistance layer and the distance from the upper surface of the refill film along the sensor height direction to the upper surface of the lower shield layer gradually increases in a region from the portion where the refill film along the sensor height direction comes in contact with the magnetoresistance layer to a point at a certain distance away from the portion.

Embodiments in accordance with the present invention provide a sensor to produce high output with a small track width. Particular embodiments include forming a magnetoresistive sensor of a read head to be substantially vertical in its upper portion and gently upwardly convexly curved in its lower portion.

A fabrication method for thin film magnetic heads, comprises, forming a Current Perpendicular to a Plane (CPP) sensor film over a lower shield and a first chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) stop film over the CPP sensor film, etching the CPP sensor film and forming a track width on the CPP sensor film, and covering at least the etching section of the CPP sensor film with an insulating film. The method further comprises forming a CMP dummy film over the insulating film and a second CMP stop film over the CMP dummy film, exposing the first CMP stop film, and removing the first CMP stop film and the second CMP stop film by oxygen reactive ion etching (RIE) and the CMP dummy film by fluorine RIE, and forming an upper shield film over the insulating film and over the CPP sensor film.
