Abstract
The present embodiments relate to write heads implementing microwave-assisted magnetic recording utilizing multiple spin torque oscillators (STOs). Each STO can include a field-generation layer (FGL) that can oscillate in a same frequency and out of phase with one another. The layers in each STO can enable mutual spin transfer torques between adjacent layers, which can drive the FGLs into a large angle oscillation. The oscillation between the FGLs can cause a magnetic field to be generated that can assist in writing to a magnetic recording medium.
