Abstract
A magnetic head has an air bearing surface, a substrate, a data transducer and a composite overcoat layer. The data transducer is positioned upon the substrate adjacent the air bearing surface. The data transducer includes a plurality of metallic layers. The composite overcoat layer is positioned upon the data transducer on a side of the data transducer opposite the substrate. An effective coefficient of thermal expansion of the composite overcoat layer is substantially equal to a coefficient of thermal expansion of a material forming the substrate.
