    摘要: A method includes depositing a layer of pole material on a substrate. The layer of pole material has a bottom surface that is adjacent to the substrate and a top surface that is opposite the bottom surface. A masking material is deposited over a portion of the top surface. Material from the pole material unprotected by the masking material is removed to form a write pole having first and second side walls. At least a portion of a trench formed by removal of the material from the layer of pole material is filled with a sacrificial material. The mask and a portion of the write pole at the top surface are removed to form a beveled trailing edge surface. The sacrificial material is then removed. Front shield gap material is deposited over the beveled trailing edge surface and over portions of the side walls.

    摘要: A row bar for forming magnetic heads includes a row of magnetic head forming portions each having a magnetic head and a cutting portion adjacent to the magnetic heads. A row of bonding pads and a first ELG pad are provided at the magnetic head, a second ELG pad is provided at the cutting portion, both of the first and the second ELG pads are adapted for contacting with a probe during lapping process, and a conductive structure that is higher than surfaces of the first and the second ELG pads is formed at peripheries of the first and the second ELG pads respectively. Due to the conductive structures, a probe used in lapping process will be prevented from shifting from the ELG pads to ensure a stable contact, thereby obtaining efficient and accurate resistance measurement.
