Abstract
A system comprises a magnetic medium with a first magnetic gap adjacent a first side and a second magnetic gap adjacent a second side, opposite the first magnetic gap. The first magnetic gap generates first longitudinal and perpendicular field components. The second magnetic gap generates second longitudinal and perpendicular field components. The first and second longitudinal field components are substantially aligned along a recording layer of the magnetic medium, and the first and second perpendicular field components are substantially opposed across the recording layer of the magnetic medium.
