THERMAL-ASSIST MAGNETIC RECORDING HEAD, AND SLIDER
摘要
<p>Disclosed is a thermal-assist magnetic head having a laser-diode mounted thereon. In order to suppress reflected return lights to a light source thereby to realize the stable actions of the light source, the thermal-assist magnetic head is provided with a slider having a waveguide, on which the mirror of a horizontal-resonator perpendicular-emission LD is mounted. The taper angle of the mirror plane of the horizontal-resonator perpendicular-emission LD is deviated from 45 degrees.</p>
