Abstract

A PMR writer is disclosed with an all wrap around design wherein the leading shield, side shields, and composite trailing shield are comprised of an anisotropic (−Ku) magnetic layer, and where the leading shield and side shields adjoin a gap layer. The composite shield has a first layer made of an isotropic magnetic material adjoining the write gap, and the anisotropic (−Ku) layer adjoins the first trailing shield layer on a side opposite the write gap. The main pole may have a tapered leading side and a tapered trailing side with the anisotropic (−Ku) leading shield and trailing shield layers extending a greater distance from the ABS than the ends of the tapered main pole sides. Adjacent track erasure is minimized while on-track write field and field gradient are improved.
