Abstract
A magnetic transducer has air-bearing surface (ABS) and includes a main pole, at least one coil, a side shield and a side gap. The coil(s) energize the main pole. A portion of the main pole resides at the ABS. The side gap is between the main pole and the side shield. The side gap is nonmagnetic and includes a first side gap and a second side gap. The first side gap is conformal with the main pole. The second side gap is conformal with the main pole. The first side gap is between the second side gap and the ABS. The second side gap is wider than the first side gap.
