摘要:
An optical focusing device for focusing an incident optical beam onto a focal plane, as a focal spot. The optical focusing device includes an incident central refractive facet upon which an optical beam impinges, and a high-index glass body through which the incident optical beam passes toward a bottom reflective surface. The bottom reflective surface reflects the optical beam through the body, toward a peripheral reflector. The peripheral reflector focuses the optical beam toward a focal plane on which the focal spot is formed. The focal plane is defined within a pedestal that forms part of the optical focusing device, and that extends from the bottom reflective surface. The central facet is conically shaped for refracting the incident optical beam away from the pedestal, onto the bottom reflective surface. The peripheral reflector surrounds the central facet and can have various appropriate shapes, such as an aspherical shape or a tilted parabolic shape, which compensates for the conical factor and aberrations introduced by the central facet. The top surface includes the central facet and the peripheral facet, and can be made substantially flat using diffractive optical elements or Fresnel optics. The focal spot of the optical rays can be optimized using sequential quadratic program and a set of optimized coefficients.

A head gimbal assembly includes a magneto-resistive read element integrated with a thermally assisted write element. The head gimbal assembly includes an optical waveguide positioned between two write poles to transmit a laser beam to a recording medium. The laser beam heats the medium sufficiently and lowers its coercivity in order to facilitate writing. A laser assembly is attached to a suspension for achieving direct coupling of the laser beam to an input end of the optical waveguide. The laser assembly is produced using cost effective wafer processing techniques. The use of silicon for the mounting block allows it to be used as a heat sink, for conducting heat away from the laser diode and into the suspension.

A method and system for providing an energy assisted magnetic recording (EAMR) transducer coupled with a laser are described. The EAMR transducer has an air-bearing surface (ABS) configured to reside in proximity to a media during use. The method and system include providing at least one waveguide, at least one write pole, and at least one coil. The waveguide(s) are for directing the energy from the laser toward the ABS. The write pole(s) each include a write pole tip, a yoke, a back pedestal and a return pole. The write pole tip is coupled to the back pedestal through the yoke. The back pedestal has at least one aperture therein. The aperture(s) are configured to allow the energy from the laser to pass therethrough. The coil(s) are for energizing the at least one write pole.

A method of making a perpendicular magnetic recording head for use in a data storage device includes forming a first pole layer, a second pole layer, a third pole layer, and a shield layer of a write section. The first pole layer, second pole layer, third pole layer, and shield layer are formed without using a chemical mechanical polishing process. The method next includes concurrently trimming the shield layer and a write pole that is defined by the third pole layer to a predetermined track width. In the trimming step, the shield layer is used as a mask for the write pole.

In one aspect, an inductive transducer is disclosed having a leading pole layer and a leading pole tip, with the pole layer being further removed than the pole tip from a media-facing surface. In another aspect, an inductive transducer is disclosed having a magnetic pedestal disposed between a leading pole layer and a leading pole tip, with at least one of the pedestal and pole layer being further removed than the pole tip from a media-facing surface. In another aspect, a leading pole layer or pedestal may have a surface that slopes away from the media-facing surface with increasing distance forward from the leading pole tip.

A coil assembly for use in an optical or a magneto-optical data storage system includes an undercoat and an electrically conductive coil formed of a length of electrical conductor and deposited and secured to the undercoat by means of available wafer processing techniques. The conductive coil terminates in two bonding pads for providing electrical connection to the coil, such that the coil is capable of sustaining an electrical current in excess of approximately 300 mA. The coil is also capable of generating a vertical magnetic field intensity greater than, or equal to approximately 200 Oersteds, and has a resistance of less than, or equal to approximately 2 ohms. The coil assembly further includes a yoke, and an insulation layer which encapsulates at least part of the conductor. The conductor is formed of a plurality of multi-layered turns, such that a first layer is connected to one contact pad and is looped helically, inwardly, and terminates in an innermost turn with a terminal end. A second layer includes an innermost terminal end that overlays the innermost terminal end of the first layer, in order to establish an electrical contact therewith, and to ensure the continuity of the electrical path formed by the coil. The second layer is coiled into a plurality of concentric helical turns, similar to, and in a same coiling direction as the first layer. The conductor is made of a electrically conductive material and has a substantially uniform square cross-sectional area along its entire length.
