摘要： In one illustrative example, a method for use in making a magnetic write head includes the steps of forming a first pole piece layer of a first pole piece; forming a patterned resist over the first pole piece layer; electroplating a pedestal over the first pole piece layer within a channel of the patterned resist; electroplating a metal gap layer over the pedestal within the channel of the patterned resist; forming a resist channel shrinking film over the patterned resist; baking the resist channel shrinking film over the patterned to thereby reduce a width of the channel; removing the resist channel shrinking film; electroplating a second pole piece within the reduced-width channel of the patterned resist; removing the patterned resist; and milling the pedestal, using the second pole piece as a mask, to form a central notched pedestal having side walls with angled slopes.

摘要： A pedestal is formed over a first pole piece layer and insulator materials are formed to surround it. A gap layer made of a non-magnetic insulator or metal is then formed over the pedestal and the insulator, followed by the optional formation of a seed layer. A second pole piece is formed over the gap layer with or without the seed layer by forming a patterned resist using E-beam lithography and electroplating second pole piece materials within the patterned resist. After milling to remove side portions of the gap layer and the optional seed layer, a chemical etch is performed to remove a top portion of the insulator materials. The pedestal is then notched and trimmed by ion milling using the second pole piece as a mask to form a central notched structure. Since the second pole piece is precisely centered over the pedestal prior to notching, the pedestal is notched symmetrically to form a notched structure having side walls with angled slopes.

摘要： A method of making provides an inverted merged MR head wherein frame plating is not required for forming a highly defined submicron track width of a top first pole tip portion. A forming structure is formed on a bottom first pole tip portion with a vertical wall located at a site where one of the edges of the top first pole tip is to be located. The top first pole tip is sputtered or plated on the vertical wall of the forming structure with a thickness that defines the track width of the write head. A mask with a recessed portion may be employed for forming the top first pole tip with a back wall that defines a zero throat height of the head. In a preferred embodiment a forming layer is formed adjacent an opposite edge of the top first pole tip and then the top surfaces of the top first pole tip, the forming layer and the forming structure are lapped until these top surfaces are flush with one another. The material of the top first pole tip has an ion milling rate that is greater than the ion milling rates of the forming layer and the forming structure. Ion milling is then employed to ion mill the top of the top first pole tip at a greater rate than the other layers causing a recess which is centered above the top surface of the top first pole tip. After depositing a write gap layer and a seedlayer in the recess the second pole tip is deposited in the recess causing the base of the second pole tip to be substantially aligned with the top surface of the top first pole tip. Sloping surfaces extending from the base of the second pole tip are similar to notching of a first pole piece in the prior art which promotes flux transfer between the pole tips and minimizes stray flux from the second pole tip to the bottom first pole tip.

摘要： A method makes an inverted merged MR head with a second pole tip which is self-aligned with a top first pole tip. After forming a bottom first pole tip layer a top first pole tip is frame plated thereon with a width that defines a track width of the merged MR head. A photoresist layer, which is employed in the frame plating of the top first pole tip, is then soft baked which causes a photoresist opening above the top first pole tip to have sloping side edges which form a recess. An electrically-conductive sacrificial layer, such as copper, is then plated into the recess on top of the top first pole tip and the photoresist is removed. A forming layer, such as alumina, is then deposited and lapped so that the forming layer and the sacrificial layer have top surfaces that are flush with respect to one another. The sacrificial layer is then removed by an etchant that will not attack the materials of the pole tips and the forming layer. The forming layer now has a recess with sloping edges into which a gap layer, a seedlayer and a second pole tip layer are deposited. By this method the second pole tip is self-aligned with the top first pole tip with the second pole tip having a bottom that is substantially the same width as the top of the top first pole tip.

摘要： A single-sided, notched write head is provided for writing narrow erase band servo tracks as well as a double-notched write head, and for writing data tracks better than a double-notched write head. The single-sided, notched write head writes a narrow erase band on the notched side and a wide erase band on the unnotched side. In one embodiment, only one side of the first pole piece layer is notched, and in another embodiment a first side of the first pole piece layer is notched more than a second side. By writing servo tracks only a fraction of the track width of the write head, a wide erase band region is overwritten so that a narrow erase band is on each side of the servo track. Data tracks are written with a narrow erase band on one side and a wide erase band on the other side. The wide erase band on one side of the data track allows more flexibility in spacing the read head from adjacent tracks. The single-sided, notched write head can be manufactured with methods that require less processing time than a double-notched write head. In one method, a notching layer is employed where removal of a small corner of the notching layer provides the first pole piece with a notch. Other methods employ photoresist to protect the side of the first pole piece that is not to be notched, and/or oscillating the workpiece less than 360° so that milling is more concentrated at the notch site.

摘要： A method makes an inverted merged MR head with a second pole tip which is self-aligned with a top first pole tip. After forming a bottom first pole tip layer, a top first pole tip is frame plated thereon with a width that defines a track width of the merged MR head. A photoresist layer, which is employed in the frame plating of the top first pole tip, is then soft baked which causes a photoresist opening above the top first pole tip to have sloping side edges which form a recess. An electrically-conductive sacrificial layer, such as copper, is then plated into the recess on top of the top first pole tip and the photoresist is removed. A forming layer, such as alumina, is then deposited and lapped so that the forming layer and the sacrificial layer have top surfaces that are flush with respect to one another. The sacrificial layer is then removed by an etchant that will not attack the materials of the pole tips and the forming layer. The forming layer now has a recess with sloping edges into which a gap layer, a seedlayer and a second pole tip layer are deposited. By this method the second pole tip is self-aligned with the top first pole tip with the second pole tip having a bottom that is substantially the same width as the top of the top first pole tip.

摘要： Two trim/notch milling steps are used to refine the track width that is defined by the second pole piece tip of a write head. The second milling step uses feedback gained after the first milling step to refine the P2B (pole P2 bottom width) dimension. A final milling step may be conducted after receiving feedback from the result of the second trim/notch milling step.
