Magnetic recording head, magnetic head assembly, magnetic recording apparatus, and magnetic recording method

摘要

An example magnetic recording apparatus includes a magnetic recording medium and a magnetic recording head. The magnetic recording head includes a first magnetic pole to apply a recording magnetic field to a magnetic recording medium, a spin torque oscillator provided parallel to the first magnetic pole, a first coil which surrounds the first magnetic pole, to magnetize the first magnetic pole, and a second coil to pass a current independently of the first coil and magnetize the first magnetic pole. A signal processor writes and reads a signal on the magnetic recording medium by using the magnetic recording head.

1. A magnetic recording apparatus, comprising:
a magnetic recording medium; a magnetic recording head comprising:
a first magnetic pole to apply a recording magnetic field to the magnetic recording medium, the first magnetic pole having a recording medium facing surface;a spin torque oscillator provided parallel to the first magnetic pole;a first coil, whose center axis is parallel to its length and perpendicular to the recording medium facing surface and which surrounds the first magnetic pole, to magnetize the first magnetic pole; anda second coil, which surrounds the first magnetic pole, to pass a current independently of the first coil and magnetize the first magnetic pole; and a signal processor to write and read a signal on the magnetic recording medium by using the magnetic recording head, wherein the signal processor includes:
a first current circuit to supply a recording current to the first coil, the recording current corresponding to a recording signal to be recorded on the magnetic recording medium; anda second current circuit to supply a modulating current to the second coil.
