    摘要: Various embodiments described herein provide for substrate structures including uniform plating seed layers, and that provide favorable adhesion on dielectric substrate layers. According to some embodiments, a methods for forming a magnetic recording pole is provided comprising: forming an insulator layer; forming a trench in the insulator layer; forming an amorphous seed layer over the insulator layer; forming an adhesion layer over the amorphous seed layer, the adhesion layer comprising a physical vapor deposited (PVD) noble metal; forming a plating seed layer over the adhesion layer, the plating seed layer comprising chemical vapor deposited (CVD) Ru; and forming a magnetic material layer over the plating seed layer.

    摘要: A magnetic apparatus has a media-facing surface (MFS), a pole, a write gap at the MFS, a trailing shield, coil(s) and a nonmagnetic refill material. The pole includes a pole tip proximate to the MFS. The trailing shield includes a pedestal and a recessed portion. The pedestal occupies a portion of the MFS. The recessed portion has a front surface at an acute angle from the MFS and is recessed from the MFS by a distance of not more than 0.8 micrometers. The write gap is between the pedestal and the pole tip. The coil(s) energize the pole and have at least one turn. The coil(s) are between the recessed portion of the trailing shield and the pole. The trailing shield is between the nonmagnetic refill material and the pole. A portion of the nonmagnetic refill material is between the recessed portion and the MFS.
