Magnetoresistive read transducer having hard magnetic shunt bias. |
摘要 |
<p>A magnetoresistive (MR) read transducer comprising an MR layer (11) having passive end regions (14) separated by a central active region (12). A longitudinal bias is produced by a thin film (16) of hard magnetic material in the end regions only, and the thin film of hard magnetic material is spaced from the MR layer by a nonmagnetic spacer layer (18) so that a magnetostatic longitudinal bias is produced of a level to maintain the passive end regions of the MR layer in a stable state.</p> |
