    摘要: An in-line lapping guide uses a contiguous resistor in a cavity to separate a lithographically-defined sensor from the in-line lapping guide. As lapping proceeds through the cavity toward the sensor, the resistance across the sensor leads increases to a specific target, thereby indicating proximity to the sensor itself. The contiguous resistor is fabricated electrically in parallel to the sensor and the in-line lapping guide. The total resistance across the sensor leads show resistance change even when lapping through the cavity portion. One method to produce the contiguous resistor is to partial mill the cavity between the sensor and the in-line lapping guide so that a film of metal is left. Total resistance across leads is the parallel resistance of the sensor, the contiguous resistor, and the in-line lapping guide.

    摘要: A process is described for fabricating sliders with reduced lapping damage to the hard-bias materials. The stack of layers for the magnetic sensor is deposited on a wafer and patterned into an initial shape. The hard-bias structures are fabricated at the side of the magnetic sensor as in the prior art. In each of the two described embodiments of the invention, the hard-bias material below the ABS is reduced or removed and replaced with a fill material such as alumina. A first embodiment reduces the hard-bias material below the ABS by forming an extended lapping gap along the ABS in both the sensor and hard-bias material. A second embodiment forms a photoresist mask over the sensor and the portion of the hard-bias/lead structures above the ABS and the exposed hard-bias/lead material below the ABS is thinned or completely removed by milling.
