Devices including a write pole tip with a convex shape

摘要

in certain embodiments, an apparatus includes a write pole tip having a top side that has a monotonically decreasing slope that forms a convex profile between a write pole paddle and an air bearing surface. In certain embodiments, an apparatus includes a write pole tip having a first and second top bevel. The first top bevel is at an angle greater than the second top bevel with respect to a plane perpendicular to an air bearing surface of the write pole tip.
