    摘要: A method is described which uses a CMP slurry with an abrasive of spherical particles to lift-off photoresist used in the patterning of the sensor for a magnetic transducer. The spherical particles, preferably less than 0.015 microns, are preferably silica, alumina, titania or zirconia with colloidal silica being preferred. An alternative method of fabricating a CPP sensor structure according to the invention deposits a dielectric or CMP resistant metal over the hard bias structure. The CMP-resistant metal is preferably selected from the group consisting of rhodium, chromium, vanadium and platinum. A CMP resistant mask deposited over the dielectric or CMP-resistant metal can include an optional adhesion layer such as tantalum followed by a DLC layer. The CMP-assisted lift-off of the photoresist and the excess materials is executed at this point. The photoresist used to protect the selected area of the sensor structure is lifted-off using the slurry.

    摘要: A method and structure for a microelectronic device comprises a first film over a substrate, a first polish resistant layer over the first film, a second film over the first polish resistant layer, a second polish resistant layer over the second film, wherein the first and second polish resistant layers comprise diamond-like carbon. The first film comprises an electrically resistive material, while the second film comprises low resistance conductive material. The first film is an electrical resistor embodied as a magnetic read sensor. The electrically resistive material is sensitive to magnetic fields. The device further comprises a generally vertical junction between the first and second films and a dielectric film abutted to the electrically resistive material.

    摘要: A method for constructing a magnetoresistive sensor using an etch mask that is resistant to the material removal process used to define the sensor width and stripe height. The method may include the use of a Ta etch mask formed under a photoresist mask, and the use of an ion milling process to define the sensor. The etch mask remains substantially intact after performing the ion milling and therefore is readily removed by a later CMP process. The etch mask layer is also very resistant to high temperatures such as those used in a desired atomic layer deposition of alumina, which is used to deposit conformal layers of alumina around the sensor.
