Abstract:
In an example, a method of manufacturing a transducer head comprises configuring a control circuit to actively synchronize magnetic responses of a shield and a write pole during operation. The method also comprises configuring the control circuit to energize at least one coil wire during operation with a current direction opposite to current flow in a main transducer head coil. In another example, a method comprises actively synchronizing magnetic responses of a shield and a write pole. In another example, a transducer head comprises a write pole and a shield, and a control circuit actively synchronizes magnetic responses of the shield and the write pole.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes a write pole magnetically coupled to write coils that generate a first magnetic field during a switching event. The apparatus includes a shield at a media-facing surface and proximate the write pole. A conductive element is disposed proximate the shield and configured to generate a second magnetic field opposite to the first magnetic field during the switching event. A selected one of the write coils is located adjacent the shield separate from others of the write coils.

A selectively magnetic insert that is capable of enhancing magnetic writing, such as in use as a data transducing head. In accordance with various embodiments, a write pole is in contact with a selectively magnetic insert that decouples the write pole from at least one adjacent shield in response a powered operation.
Abstract:
A method for creating a write element of a magnetic head according to one embodiment includes forming a first pole pedestal; forming a write gap layer above the first pole pedestal; forming a second pole pedestal above the write gap layer; and forming at least one of: a cap layer of CoFeON between the first pole pedestal and the write gap, and a seed layer of CoFeON between the write gap layer and the second pole pedestal. Note that other layers may be interspersed between those set forth here.
Abstract:
A perpendicular magnetic head for writing information on a magnetic recording medium comprises an ABS, a coil for generating a magnetic flux, a magnetic pole layer, a magnetic shield layer, and a gap layer disposed between the magnetic pole layer and the magnetic shield layer. Further the magnetic head has a non-magnetic region of a non-magnetic material. The non-magnetic region is disposed in the magnetic shield layer and positioned behind the ABS at a predetermined distance. The non-magnetic region is also disposed in the magnetic shield layer and has a predetermined width. With such a configuration, an undesirable concentration of the magnetic flux on the ABS is prevented.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a thin film magnetic head capable of suppressing unintentional wiring to a neighboring track and preventing information recorded on a recording medium from being erased. A main magnetic pole layer is constructed so that height of a widened end surface in a lower main magnetic pole layer specifying a wide portion is smaller than height of an exposed surface in an upper main magnetic pole layer (front end portion) specifying a uniform width portion. Since the area of the widened end surface is narrowed with respect to the area of the exposed surface, even if an amount of magnetic flux flowing in the lower main magnetic pole layer increases at the time of recording information, as compared with the case where the height of the widened end surface is equal to the height of the exposed surface, unintentional emission of the magnetic flux flowing in the lower main magnetic pole layer from the widened end surface not via the upper main magnetic pole layer (front end portion) toward the recording medium is suppressed.
Abstract:
A thin film magnetic recording head comprises a substrate, a first magnetic core formed on the substrate, a second magnetic core having the front end face with a magnetic gap with respect to the front end face of the first magnetic core, and a coil for developing magnetic flux between the front end portions of the magnetic cores. A width of the second magnetic core at the front end portion thereof is chosen to be smaller than that of the first magnetic core. The second magnetic core is at a leading position relative to the second magnetic core in a traveling direction on a recording medium. In such configuration, it is possible to reduce side erase due to recording magnetic flux fringing and to achieve high density of magnetic recording while maintaining the conventional fabrication steps for the thin film magnetic recording head, thereby avoiding the problem in the fabrication.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a thin film magnetic head achieving improved recording performance by sharpening recording magnetic field gradient as much as possible. The thin film magnetic head has a return yoke layer disposed on a trailing side of a magnetic pole layer, and width W3 of an exposed surface of a lower TH specifying part in a TH specifying portion in the return yoke layer is equal to or larger than width W1 of an exposed surface of the magnetic pole layer (W3≧W1), and is less than width W4 of an exposed surface of an upper TH specifying part (W3
Abstract:
In a convention inductive head, since a large magnetic field is leaked from the end of the magnetic pole end of an upper magnetic core, at recording the recording magnetic field is applied to a recording media in a region larger than a desired track width, thereby damaging the adjacent information. In an inductive head according to the present invention, in order to efficiently carry a magnetic flux to a magnetic pole tip layer, the top surface of the rear end of the magnetic pole tip layer is etched away so as to connect the rear end of the magnetic pole tip layer to the front end of an upper magnetic core having a width larger than that of the rear end of the magnetic pole tip layer. It is possible to realize a recording head having a large recording magnetic field.
Abstract:
A thin-film magnetic head has a lower magnetic pole section including a front portion close to a face of the head opposing a recording medium. The front portion has side faces flush with side faces of an upper magnetic core layer formed above the lower magnetic pole section. The lower magnetic pole section does not protrude from the sides of the upper magnetic pole layer. A gap depth defining layer is formed above the lower magnetic core layer and under the upper magnetic pole layer below the upper core layer. Side faces of the gap depth defining layer and the lower magnetic pole section are flush with side faces of the upper magnetic pole layer and/or the upper core layer in the track width direction.
