Abstract
A method for forming a perpendicular magnetic read/write head having an air bearing surface and comprising a substantially planar top pole and a shared pole is disclosed. The steps include forming a top pole, a shared pole, and a yoke wherein the top pole and shared pole are connected distally from the air bearing surface by a yoke. A conductive coil is formed that wraps around the top pole and is positioned adjacent to the air bearing surface, with a lower portion of the coils extending between the top pole and the shared pole.
