Embodiment Construction

[0020] In the following detailed description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without some of these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and techniques have not been shown in detail to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the present invention.

Abstract

The invention relates to a damascene write poles produced via full film plating. A method for forming a write pole comprises forming a stop layer over a substrate layer of a wafer, the stop layer having an opening above a damascene trench in the substrate layer, and forming a buffer layer over the stop layer, the buffer layer having an opening above the opening of the stop layer. The method further comprises plating a layer of magnetic material over the wafer, disposing a first sacrificial material over a region of the magnetic material above the damascene trench, performing a milling or etching operation over the wafer to remove the magnetic material not covered by the first sacrificial material and to remove the first sacrificial material, disposing a second sacrificial material over the wafer, and performing a polishing operation over the wafer to remove the region of the magnetic material above the damascene trench, the second sacrificial material, and the buffer layer.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to hard disk drives, and in particular to the production of damascene (damascene) write poles through full film plating. Background technique [0002] A hard disk drive includes one or more hard disks coated with a magnetic recording medium capable of storing data thereon. Hard drives also include read / write heads for interacting with data in the magnetic recording media. The write head includes an inductive element for generating a magnetic field that aligns the magnetic moments of domains in the magnetic recording medium to represent data bits. [0003] Magnetic recording techniques include longitudinal and perpendicular recording. Perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) is a form of magnetic recording in which the magnetic moments representing the data bits are oriented perpendicular to the surface of the magnetic recording medium, as opposed to longitudinally along its magnetic tracks. PMR has many advantag...
