Abstract
A microwave-assisted magnetic recording (MAMR) head according to one embodiment includes a main pole; a trailing shield positioned downstream from the main pole; an oscillation device adapted to generate a high-frequency magnetic field, the oscillation device being positioned between the main pole and the trailing shield; a circuit adapted to flow an electric current therethrough to the main pole, the oscillation device, and the trailing shield; an electrically conductive non-magnetic body positioned on one or more sides of the main pole in a cross-track direction and/or a leading direction; and an insulating non-magnetic body positioned on one or more sides of the electrically conductive non-magnetic body in the cross-track direction and/or the leading direction, wherein one or more edge portions of one side of the oscillation device and one or more edge portions of one side of the main pole are in direct contact with the electrically conductive non-magnetic body.
