    Abstract: A read track width defining layer is employed for defining first and second side edges of a read sensor. The read track width defining layer preferably remains in the head to planarize the read head at first and second hard bias and lead layers so as to overcome a problem of write gap curvature in an accompanying write head. The read track width defining layer is defined by a subtractive process about a bilayer photoresist layer. The subtractive process is selective to the read track width defining layer over a read sensor material layer therebelow. Ion milling is then employed for defining first and second side edges of a read sensor layer employing the read track width defining layer as a mask. First and second hard bias and lead layers are then deposited which make contiguous junctions with the first and second side edges of each of the read sensor and read track width defining layers. The photoresist is then removed and the remainder of the read head is completed.

    Abstract: A read track width defining layer (306, 310) is employed for defining first (322) and second side edges of a read sensor. The read track width defining layer (310) preferably remains in the head to planarize the read head at first (330) and second (332) hard bias and lead layers so as to overcome a problem of write gap curvature in an accompanying write head. The read track width defining layer is defined by a subtractive process about a bilayer photoresist layer (308). The subtractive process is selective to the read track width defining layer over a read sensor material layer (304) therebelow. Ion milling is then employed for defining first and second side edges of a read sensor layer employing the read track width defining layer as a mask. First and second hard bias and lead layers are then deposited which make contiguous junctions with the first and second side edges of each of the read sensor and read track width defining layers. The photoresist is then removed and the remainder of the read head is completed.

    Abstract: A magnetic recording disk has an improved surface film formed on the disk blank. A sputter-deposited surface coating containing nickel, chromium and oxygen (Ni-Cr-O) is formed on a AlMg disk blank, after which a cobalt alloy magnetic layer is formed over the Ni-Cr-O coating and a protective overcoat is formed over magnetic layer. The use of the Ni-Cr-O coating on the disk blank eliminates the need for a wet electroless deposition process for creation of a surface coating and results in an inherent texturing of the subsequently deposited magnetic film and protective overcoat which conform to the surface texture of the sputter-deposited Ni-Cr-O. The disks made with the Ni-Cr-O surface film exhibit a very law static friction force between the air-bearing slider and the disk surface when the disks are used in contact start/stop (CSS) disk files.
