摘要

The present invention provides a calibration standard for the uniform calibration of flying height testers. The calibration standard comprises a head assembly held in contact with a transparent disc through the use of a load spring. The transparent disc has a plurality of grooves formed in a surface facing the head assembly. A cover case is attached to the glass disc at one end and provides a sealed environment for the interface between the head assembly and the transparent disc.
