The design, fabrication and performance of an experimental thin film recording head is
described which has 25 μm and 125 μm track width magnetoresistive (MR) read elements …

Using photolithographic and thin-film deposition techniques various types of single-and
multi-turn inductive heads have been fabricated, with or without a magnetoresistive (MR) …

Magnetic recording heads fabricated using magnetic thin films have a number of well‐
known advantages over conventional heads. The magnetoresistive effect in thin permalloy …

The design, fabrication and performance of a high-track-density disk head with a coupled-
film, magnetoresistive read section and single-turn write section are discussed. Based on …

Inductive-write and magnetoresistive (MR)-read dual-element heads of very narrow
trackwidths and narrow gaps have been designed, fabricated, and recording-tested on thin …

The authors describe the testing and modeling methods undertaken to demonstrate and
verify an areal density of 500 Mb/in/sup 2/with a combined inductive, thin-film write head and …

The authors report on vertical recording with a dual-shielded MR (magnetoresistive) element
and a piggyback inductive write head designed for longitudinal recording. Readback from …

We have fabricated a thin head composed of a double layer magnetoresistive (MR)
reproducing element and an inductive recording element for high density rigid disk drives …

A novel type of shielded magnetoresistive (MR) head with a 5-mu m tack width is discussed.
Its primary feature is the suppression of Barkhausen noise. The head also has low crosstalk …

Inductive-write and magnetoresistive-(MR)-read dual-element heads with very narrow tracks
and gaps have been designed, fabricated, and tested on thin-film media of high coercivity …
