Assignee:
Seagate Technology LLC - Scotts Valley CA
International Classification:
G11B 5/127
US Classification:
3603242
Abstract:
The present invention provides a tunneling magneto-resistive read sensor structure that improves sensitivity and linear density of the sensor structure. The sensor includes first and second electrodes and a stack positioned between the electrodes. The stack includes first and second free layers with magnetization orientations that are biased relative to each other. A tunneling barrier (insulating layer) or non-magnetic metal spacer is positioned between the first and second free layers. A sense current is passed between the first and second free layers of the stack. The amount of current passing through the first and second free layer changes based upon the orientation of the first and second free layers relative to each other.
Tmr Head Structure With Conductive Shunt
US Patent:
7151654, Dec 19, 2006
Filed:
Nov 19, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/300412
Inventors:
Sining Mao - Savage MN, US

Assignee:
Seagate Technology LLC - Scotts Valley CA
International Classification:
G11B 5/39
US Classification:
3603242
Abstract:
The sensor of the present invention is a tunneling magnetoresistive read sensor that includes first and second electrodes, and a stack positioned between the electrodes. The stack includes at least one sense layer and a tunnel barrier. A shunt member is operatively coupled to the electrodes in parallel with the stack. The shunt member diverts current flowing from the first electrode to the second electrode when the sensor is operational so that current simultaneously flows through the stack and the shunt member to reduce the effective resistance of the sensor.
Biasing For Tri-Layer Magnetoresistive Sensors
US Patent:

Assignee:
Seagate Technology LLC - Scotts Valley CA
International Classification:
G11B 5/33
US Classification:
36032412
Abstract:
A biasing system for a tri-layer reader stack magnetoresistive sensor is disclosed. The tri-layer reader stack includes a first ferromagnetic free layer, a second ferromagnetic free layer, and a magnetoresistive layer between the first and second ferromagnetic free layers. The free layers are positioned in the tri-layer reader stack such that quiescent state magnetizations of the free layers are antiparallel. A biasing layer is positioned with regard to the tri-layer reader stack, typically separated from the tri-layer reader stack by a nonmagnetic spacer layer. A biasing means is positioned such that a magnetization of the biasing layer is perpendicular to the quiescent state magnetizations of the free layers. This biasing results in the free layers having biased magnetizations directed substantially orthogonal with respect to each other.

Assignee:
Seagate Technology LLC - Cupertino CA
International Classification:
G11B 5/33
US Classification:
360319
Abstract:
A pole tip shield for a write element of a recording head is disclosed. The pole tip shield is spaced from the pole tip in the leading edge direction to provide a magnetic wall angle to reduce ATI or adjacent track erasure to compensate for the skew angle of the head. In illustrated embodiments, the pole tip shield includes side portions. In illustrated embodiments the pole tip shield is generally “U” shaped and side portions of the pole tip shield include different thickness or width dimensions. In illustrated embodiments, the pole tip shield provides a magnetic wall angle for a rectangular shaped pole tip. Embodiments disclosed in the application include a trailing edge shield separated from the pole tip shield along an air bearing surface of the head by a non-magnetic gap portion.

US Classification:
2960313, 2960314, 2960315, 2960316, 2960318, 360121, 360122, 360317, 427127, 427128
Abstract:
A method of fabricating a recording head includes depositing an insulator material onto at least a portion of a first member, wherein the insulator material forms an insulator film having a film thickness. The method further includes depositing a writer pole material onto the insulator film, wherein the writer pole material forms a writer pole member, and wherein the insulator film is between the writer pole member and a contact layer. Further, in some embodiments, the film thickness determines the distance between the writer pole member and the first contact member and also determines the distance between the writer pole member and the second contact member.
