Novel photoresist material to achieve hardbake resist shape control

摘要

A method for forming at least two layers of electrical coils and their supportive resistive layers for a magnetic write head having an ultra-short yoke so that the second and any additional coil layers are formed on flat resistive surfaces to eliminate problems associated with inter- and intra-layer shorting and with shorting between coil and yoke. The resistive layers are formed with flat surfaces and desired apex angles by using a novel two-step photoresist scheme in which a layer of photoresist is first photoexposed and developed, then photoexposed a second time to cure a surface region that will remain flat during a final low temperature curing process.
