Various embodiments can be generally directed to a magnetoresistive stack with a first stripe height and a biasing magnet positioned adjacent the magnetoresistive stack. The biasing magnet can have a second stripe height that is less than the first stripe height. The first and second stripe heights may correspond to a minimum signal to noise ratio in the magnetoresistive stack.

A patterned magnetic recording media and method thereof is provided. A recording layer comprises a continuous surface of more-noble elements and less-noble elements, such as CoXYZ, wherein X can be Pt, Pd, Ru, Rh, Ir, Os, or Au, wherein Y can be null or Cr, and wherein Z can be null, Cu, Ta, Ti, O, B, Ag, or TiO2. The recording layer is masked, shielding areas for recording domains and exposing areas between the recording domains. A voltage bias establishes the substrate as an anode in the presence of Pt cathode, in an electrolyte bath. Ions of the less-noble element are anodically removed predominantly from the exposed areas of the recording layer for a controlled time. The controlled time minimizes oxidation of the nobler element and reduces undercutting of the recording domains. The article produced can have separating areas with surfaces substantially formed of the more-noble element.

Various embodiments generally relate to a magnetic sensor, and more specifically to a magnetoresistive read head sensor. In one such exemplary embodiment, a magnetic sensor comprises a sensor stack and magnetic bias elements positioned adjacent opposite sides of the sensor stack. At least one of the bias elements has a non-rectangular shape, such as substantially trapezoidal or parallelogram shapes having non-perpendicular corners.

In some embodiments, a magnetic reader comprises first and second shields extending from an air bearing surface (ABS), a magnetoresistive stack is located between the first and second shields, and a flux guide is separated from the magnetoresistive stack while connecting the first and second shields. The flux guide magnetically couples the distal end of the magnetoresistive stack to the first shield.
摘要:
A magnetic sensor or magnetoresistive read head comprises a sensor stack and magnetic bias elements positioned adjacent each side of the sensor stack. The sensor stack and bias elements have non-rectangular shapes, such as substantially trapezoidal or parallelogram shapes having non-perpendicular corners. In some embodiments, the sensor stack and bias elements have a shape that stabilizes a “C” state or “S” state magnetization pattern.
摘要:
Methods, systems, and programing of one tactile sensor are presented. In one example, magnetic sensors containing one or more layers are formed on a base substrate for sensing a magnetic field generated by one ferromagnet present in close proximity to the magnetic sensors. The ferromagnet is embedded in an elastomer matrix. When an external force is applied to the elastomer matrix, it deforms and displaces the ferromagnet. As a result, the magnetic field generated by the ferromagnet changes. This change is sensed by the magnetic sensors to in turn quantify the applied force.
摘要:
A trilayer magnetoresistive sensor has at least first and second ferromagnetic layers separated by a nonmagnetic layer. A high coercivity permanent magnet bias element biases the first ferromagnetic layer in a first direction. A high moment permanent magnet bias element biases the second ferromagnetic layer in a second direction substantially orthogonal to the first direction.
