Abstract
A PMR writer is disclosed wherein a top yoke (TY) is extended toward the air bearing surface (ABS) and below a top coil for faster saturation speed and better frequency extendibility without wide adjacent track erasure trade-off. The TY extension has a front side recessed 0.9-1.3 microns from the ABS, and has a backside below an inner corner of a PP3 trailing shield that is 2-2.6 microns from the ABS. TY thickness is from 0.3-0.8 micron and the TY is preferably used with a 1+1T coil design, and a PP3 trailing shield apex angle of 60° to 80° for better high data rate performance. Magnetic modeling shows rise time is shorter than for a conventional TY. The top yoke design is compatible with various base writer structures. When used in selectable double writers or selectable triple writers, each writer has a separate TY, main pole, and bottom yoke.
