    Abstract: Electroplated components of magnetic head (100, 150) are fabricated utilizing a seed layer (112, 160) that is susceptible to reactive ion etch removal techniques. The seed layer is comprised of tungsten or titanium is fabricated by sputter deposition, is electrically conductive wherein electroplated components, such as induction coil members (104) and magnetic poles (188), are effectively electroplated into photolithographically created photoresist trenches (108, 180) that are fabricated upon the seed layer. Following the electroplating, the photoresist layer is removed utilizing standard wet chemical process. Utilizing a fluorine species reactive ion etch process the seed layer is removed, significantly, the fluorine RIE process creates a gaseous tungsten or titanium fluoride compound removal product. The problem of seed layer redeposition along the sides of the electroplated components is overcome because the gaseous fluoride compound is not redeposited. Included is an enhanced two part seed layer (138), where the lower part (112) is tungsten, titanium or tantalum, the upper part (140) is composed of material that constitutes the component to be electroplated.

    Abstract: A magneto-resistive read head (107) having a "parasitic shield" (124) provides an alternative path for currents associated with sparkovers, thus preventing such currents from damaging the read head (107). The parasitic shield (124) is provided in close proximity to a conventional magnetic shield (113, 115). The electrical potential of parasitic shield (124) is held essentially equal to the electrical potential of the sensor element (111). If charges accumulate on the conventional shield (113, 115), current will flow to the parasitic shield (124) at a lower potential than would be required for current to flow between the conventional shield (113, 115) and the sensor element (111). Alternatively, conductive spark gap devices (203, 206) are electrically coupled to sensor element leads and to each magnetic shield (201, 202). Each spark gap (203, 206) device is brought within very close proximity of the substrate (207) to provide an alternative path for charge that builds up between the sensor element (213) and the substrate (207) to be discharged. The ends of the spark gaps (203, 206) that are brought into close proximity of the substrate are preferably configured with high electric field density inducing structures which reduce the voltage required to cause a sparkover between the spark gap device (203, 206) and the substrate (207).
