摘要： A current-in-the-plane (CIP) giant magnetoresistive (GMR) spin valve sensor has its free layer magnetization stabilized by longitudinal biasing through the use of free layer end-region antiferromagnetic exchange coupling. An antiparallel coupling (APC) layer, such as Ru, is formed on the free layer and a ferromagnetic bias layer is formed on the APC layer. The bias layer is a continuous layer that extends across the entire width of the free layer. The central region of the bias layer is formed of nonmagnetic oxides of one or more of the elements making up the bias layer, with the bias layer end regions remaining ferromagnetic. The oxidized central region of the bias layer defines the central active trackwidth region of the underlying free layer. The ferromagnetic end regions of the bias layer are antiferromagnetically coupled across the APC layer to the corresponding underlying free layer end regions to provide the longitudinal biasing.

摘要： A magnetoresistive sensor having a magnetically stable free layer fabricated from a material having a positive magnetostriction such as a Co—Fe—B alloy. Although the free layer is fabricated from a material that has a positive magnetostriction, which would ordinarily make the free layer unstable, the magnetization of the free layer remains stable because of an induced magnetic anisotropy that has an easy axis of magnetization oriented parallel to the Air-bearing Surface (ABS). This magnetic anisotropy of the free layer is induced by an anisotropic texturing of the surface of the free layer. The resulting anisotropic surface texture is produced by an ion milling process that utilizes an ion beam directed at an acute angle relative to the normal to the surface of the wafer whereon the sensor is fabricated while the wafer is held on a stationary chuck. This angled, static ion milling produces an anisotropic surface texture, or roughness, of the free layer, which results in the above described magnetic anisotropy with an easy axis of magnetization in a desired orientation.

摘要： A perpendicular magnetic recording write head has a flux conductor in contact with the write pole. The flux conductor is substantially wider than the write pole tip in the cross-track direction and has a blunt end that is recessed from the pole tip end. The region of the flux conductor where its blunt end is in contact with the pole tip is the “choke” point for the write pole, i.e., the point where the flux density is highest. The flux conductor enables the write pole to be made with no flare, or with a flare angle and throat height with a much wider tolerance, which substantially simplifies the manufacturing process. The write head may have a trailing shield and side shields that substantially surround the write pole tip and remove stray fields that may be produced by the flux conductor, so that regions of the recording layer other than the track being written are not adversely affected.

摘要： A magnetic head having an improved read head structure. The read head includes a free magnetic layer with hard bias elements disposed proximate its ends, where the hard bias elements include an improved hard bias magnetic grain structure. This is accomplished by fabricating the hard bias element as a bilayer structure having a first hard bias sublayer, a nonmagnetic midlayer and a second hard bias sublayer. The midlayer is preferably composed of a nonmagnetic material such as chromium, and the hard bias sublayers are composed of a magnetic material such as CoPtCr. Each sublayer is formed with its own magnetic grains, and because there are two sublayers, the hard bias element is fabricated with approximately twice the number of magnetic grains as the prior art single layer hard bias element.

摘要： An improved magnetoresistive device and method for fabricating the same which results in improved Barkhausen noise suppression. A generally coplanar device is described having an MR structure conductive region longitudinally biased by opposing permanent magnet layers separated therefrom by a non-magnetic metal or dielectric separation layer. significant reduction of the demagnetization energy near the MR-to-permanent magnet junction is achieved, particularly in the use of an elliptically shaped conductive region and the resultant generally coplanar device is readily fabricated and reproducible using a self-aligning process. The longitudinal bias technique described can be used in conjunction with all known transverse bias techniques.

摘要： A method is provided for fabricating a head for perpendicular recording with self-aligning side shields. The voids where the side shields will be formed are milled into the layer of material for the pole tip to achieve self-alignment. A mask is patterned with openings defining initial shape of the pole piece tip nearest the air-bearing surface including the width and the point at which the pole tip widens out. A film of soft magnetic material to form the side shields is deposited over the wafer. A chemical-mechanical-polishing process is preferably used to remove the mask and the material deposited on it. A new mask is patterned over the predetermined area for the final shape of the pole tip and the side shields. The excess side shield material and pole tip material outside of the mask is then removed.
