Abstract
A method according to one embodiment includes forming a first portion of a thin film writer structure on a substrate, forming a portion of a write gap at an initial position, a plane of deposition of the portion of the write gap being at an angle of greater than 0° and less than 90° relative to an upper surface of the first portion in the initial position, moving the writer structure to orient the plane of deposition of the portion of the write gap more toward perpendicular to a plane corresponding to a final media-facing surface of the writer structure than the orientation of the plane of deposition of the portion of the write gap in the initial position, and fixing the writer structure in place after the moving.
