Abstract

A magnetic recording head includes a magnetic pole that applies a recording magnetic field to a recording medium, a light generating element configured to generate light to heat a recording surface of the recording medium, and a waveguide on a leading side of the light generating element to guide an incident light to the light generating element. The waveguide includes a first waveguide having an incident surface into which the light enters, and a second waveguide having a first surface facing the first waveguide, through which the light from the first waveguide enters, and a second surface facing the light generating element and extending substantially perpendicular to the recording surface of the recording medium, through which the light entering the light generating element passes. A refractive index of the second waveguide is different from a refractive index of the first waveguide.
