Methods and structures for the fabrication of perpendicular thin film heads are disclosed. Prior to the deposition of shield structures, capped seed layers having a dual layer structure are utilized, improving photo resist adhesion and plated shield adhesion, without the need to deposit, then remove, traditional inorganic anti-reflection coatings prior to shield plating.

One preferred method for use in making a device structure with use of the resist channel shrinking solution includes the steps of forming a first pedestal portion within a channel of a patterned resist; applying a resist channel shrinking solution comprising a resist channel shrinking film and corrosion inhibitors within the channel of the patterned resist; baking the resist channel shrinking solution over the patterned resist to thereby reduce a width of the channel of the patterned resist; removing the resist channel shrinking solution; and forming a second pedestal portion within the reduced-width channel of the patterned resist. Advantageously, the oxide layer and the corrosion inhibitors of the resist channel shrinking solution reduce corrosion in the pedestal during the act of baking the resist channel shrinking solution.

The present invention discloses a method for the production of sub-micron structures on magnetic materials using electron beam lithography. A subtractive process is disclosed wherein a portion of a magnetic material layer is removed from the substrate using conventional lithography, and the remaining portion of the magnetic material layer is patterned by e-beam lithography. A additive process is also disclosed wherein a thin magnetic seed layer is deposited on the substrate, a portion of which is removed by conventional lithography and replaced with a non-magnetic conducting layer. The remaining portion of magnetic seed layer is patterned by e-beam lithography and the final magnetic structure produced by electroplating.

摘要:
A method and apparatus is presented for using a pressure control system to monitor a plasma processing system. By monitoring variations in the state of the pressure control system, a fault condition, an erroneous fault condition, or a service condition can be detected. For example, the service condition can include monitoring the accumulation of residue between successive preventative maintenance events.
摘要:
A method for manufacturing a magnetic write head having a stepped trailing shield. The stepped trailing shield is formed by forming a non-magnetic bump over a write pole prior to electroplating a wrap-around magnetic shield. The method allows the location of the front edge of the bump relative to the back edge of the wrap-around shield to be monitored by measuring the electrical resistance of an electrical lapping guide formed concurrently with these features. This concurrent formation of a lapping guide can be used to define the relative location of other features as well, such as the location of a back edge of a wrap-around shield relative to a flare point of a write pole.
