摘要 |
A magnetoresistive (MR) sensor for use in a magnetic storage system including a magnetic storage media having multiple concentric microtracks with information stored thereon. The MR sensor (50, 90, 140) includes a plurality of generally parallel layers that form an MR stack (60, 100, 150). The MR sensor also includes a top shield (52, 92, 142) and a bottom shield (54, 96, 146) that are spaced apart on opposite sides of the MR stack in a longitudinal direction. The MR sensor further includes a first (56, 92, 142) and a second (58, 96, 146) side shield spaced apart on opposite sides of the MR stack in a transverse direction. The top shield, bottom shield, first side shield and second side shield substantially surround the MR stack. |
