Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to a magnetic recording head of a spintronic device, such as a write head of a data storage device, for example a magnetic media drive.
The heart of the functioning and capability of a computer is the storing and writing of data to a data storage device, such as a hard disk drive (HDD). The volume of data processed by a computer is increasing rapidly. There is a need for higher recording density of a magnetic recording medium to increase the function and the capability of a computer.
In order to achieve higher recording densities, such as recording densities exceeding 2 Tbit/in2 for a magnetic recording medium, the width and pitch of write tracks are narrowed, and thus the corresponding magnetically recorded bits encoded in each write track is narrowed. One challenge in narrowing the width and pitch of write tracks is decreasing a surface area of a main pole of the magnetic write head at a media facing surface. As the main pole becomes smaller, the writing field becomes smaller as well, limiting the effectiveness of the magnetic write head.
Heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) and microwave-assisted magnetic recording (MAMR) are two types of energy-assisted recording technology to improve the recording density of a magnetic recording medium, such as a HDD. In MAMR, a spin torque oscillator (STO) device is located next to or near the write element in order to produce a high-frequency AC field, such as in a microwave frequency band. The high-frequency AC field reduces an effective coercivity of a magnetic recording medium used to store data and allows writing of the magnetic recording medium at lower magnetic writing fields emanated from the write pole. Thus, higher recording density of the magnetic recording medium may be achieved by MAMR technology.
Energy-assisted recording write heads may require an undesirable high voltage and/or an undesirable high current to produce a write field enhancement. A high voltage and/or high current may impact the lifetime and the reliability of the write head by degrading components of the write head. Lowering the voltage, moment-thickness product of the energy-assist magnetic layer, or the current can hinder writer performance, lower areal density capability (ADC), and/or limit the materials used in write heads.
Therefore, there is a need for write heads that simply and effectively facilitate write head performance reliability and high moment-thickness product of the energy-assist magnetic layer while facilitating lower voltage or current to facilitate effective and efficient magnetic recording, and high ADC of magnetic recording.
Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to a magnetic recording head of a spintronic device, such as a write head of a data storage device, for example a magnetic media drive. In one example, a magnetic recording head includes a main pole, a trailing shield, and a spin torque layer (STL) between the main pole and the trailing shield that provides energy-assisted write field enhancement. The magnetic recording head includes a first layer structure on the main pole, and the first layer structure includes a negative polarization layer. The magnetic recording head also includes a second layer structure disposed on the negative polarization layer and between the negative polarization layer and the STL. The negative polarization layer is an FeCr layer. The second layer structure includes a Cr layer disposed on the FeCr layer, and a Cu layer disposed on the Cr layer and between the Cr layer and the STL.
In one implementation, a magnetic recording head includes a main pole, a trailing shield, a spin torque layer (STL) between the main pole and the trailing shield, and a first spacer layer between the STL and the trailing shield. The magnetic recording head also includes a multilayer structure disposed on the main pole and between the main pole and the STL. The multilayer structure includes a first layer structure on the main pole. The first layer structure includes a negative polarization layer. The multilayer structure also includes a second layer structure disposed on the negative polarization layer and between the negative polarization layer and the STL.

The multilayer structure includes an FeCr layer between the main pole and the STL, a Cr layer disposed on the FeCr layer, and a Cu layer disposed on the Cr layer and between the Cr layer and the STL.

The at least one negative polarization layer includes a magnetic material.

In one example, a magnetic recording head includes a main pole, a trailing shield, and a spin torque layer (STL) between the main pole and the trailing shield. The magnetic recording head includes a first layer structure on the main pole, and the first layer structure includes a negative polarization layer.

At least one slider 113 is positioned near the rotatable magnetic disk 112. Each slider 113 supports a head assembly 121. The head assembly 121 includes one or more magnetic recording heads (such as read/write heads), such as a write head including a spintronic device. As the rotatable magnetic disk 112 rotates, the slider 113 moves radially in and out over the disk surface 122 so that the head assembly 121 may access different tracks of the rotatable magnetic disk 112 where desired data are written. Each slider 113 is attached to an actuator arm 119 by way of a suspension 115. The suspension 115 provides a slight spring force which biases the slider 113 toward the disk surface 122. Each actuator arm 119 is attached to an actuator 127. The actuator 127 as shown in
The head assembly 121, such as a write head of the head assembly 121, includes a media facing surface (MFS) such as an air bearing surface (ABS) that faces the disk surface 122. During operation of the magnetic recording device 100, the rotation of the rotatable magnetic disk 112 generates an air or gas bearing between the slider 113 and the disk surface 122 which exerts an upward force or lift on the slider 113. The air or gas bearing thus counter-balances the slight spring force of suspension 115 and supports the slider 113 off and slightly above the disk surface 122 by a small, substantially constant spacing during operation.
The various components of the magnetic recording device 100 are controlled in operation by control signals generated by control unit 129, such as access control signals and internal clock signals. The control unit 129 includes logic control circuits, storage means and a microprocessor. The control unit 129 generates control signals to control various system operations such as drive motor control signals on a line 123 and head position and seek control signals on a line 128. The control signals on line 128 provide the desired current profiles to optimally move and position slider 113 to the desired data track on rotatable magnetic disk 112. Write and read signals are communicated to and from the head assembly 121 by way of recording channel 125. In one embodiment, which can be combined with other embodiments, the magnetic recording device 100 may further include a plurality of media, or disks, a plurality of actuators, and/or a plurality number of sliders.
In one embodiment, which can be combined with other embodiments, the head assembly 200 includes a magnetic read head 211.

The sensing element 204 is a magnetoresistive (MR) sensing element, such an element exerting a tunneling magneto-resistive (TMR) effect, a magneto-resistance (GMR) effect, an extraordinary magneto-Resistive (EMR) effect, or a spin torque oscillator (STO) effect. The magnetic fields of magnetized regions in the rotatable magnetic disk 112, such as perpendicular recorded bits or longitudinal recorded bits, are detectable by the sensing element 204 as the recorded bits.
The head assembly 200 includes a write head 210. In one embodiment, which can be combined with other embodiments, the write head 210 includes a main pole 220, a leading shield 206, a trailing shield (TS) 240, and a spintronic device 230 disposed between the main pole 220 and the TS 240. The main pole 220 serves as a first electrode. Each of the main pole 220, the spintronic device 230, the leading shield 206, and the trailing shield (TS) 240 has a front portion at the MFS.
The main pole 220 includes a magnetic material, such as CoFe, CoFeNi, or FeNi, other suitable magnetic materials. In one embodiment, which can be combined with other embodiments, the main pole 220 includes small grains of magnetic materials in a random texture, such as body-centered cubic (BCC) materials formed in a random texture. In one example, a random texture of the main pole 220 is formed by electrodeposition. The write head 210 includes a coil 218 around the main pole 220 that excites the main pole 220 to produce a writing magnetic field for affecting a magnetic recording medium of the rotatable magnetic disk 112. The coil 218 may be a helical structure or one or more sets of pancake structures.
In one embodiment, which can be combined with other embodiments, the main pole 220 includes a trailing taper 242 and a leading taper 244. The trailing taper 242 extends from a location recessed from the MFS 212 to the MFS 212. The leading taper 244 extends from a location recessed from the MFS 212 to the MFS 212. The trailing taper 242 and the leading taper 244 may have the same degree or different degree of taper with respect to a longitudinal axis 260 of the main pole 220. In one embodiment, which can be combined with other embodiments, the main pole 220 does not include the trailing taper 242 and the leading taper 244. In such an embodiment, the main pole 220 includes a trailing side and a leading side in which the trailing side and the leading side are substantially parallel.
The TS 240 includes a magnetic material, such as FeNi, or other suitable magnetic materials, serving as a second electrode and return pole for the main pole 220. The leading shield 206 may provide electromagnetic shielding and is separated from the main pole 220 by a leading gap 254.
The spintronic device 230 is positioned proximate the main pole 220 and reduces the coercive force of the magnetic recording medium, so that smaller writing fields can be used to record data. An electron current is applied to spintronic device 230 from a current source 270 to produce a microwave field. The electron current may include direct current (DC) waveforms, pulsed DC waveforms, and/or pulsed current waveforms going to positive and negative voltages, or other suitable waveforms.
In one embodiment, which can be combined with other embodiments, the spintronic device 230 is electrically coupled to the main pole 220 and the TS 240. The main pole 220 and the TS 240 are separated in an area by an insulating layer 272. The current source 270 may provide electron current to the spintronic device 230 through the main pole 220 and the TS 240. For direct current or pulsed current, the current source 270 may flow electron current from the main pole 220 through the spintronic device 230 to the TS 240 or may flow electron current from the TS 240 through the spintronic device 230 to the main pole 220 depending on the orientation of the spintronic device 230. In one embodiment, which can be combined with other embodiments, the spintronic device 230 is coupled to electrical leads providing an electron current other than from the main pole 220 and/or the TS 240.
It is to be understood that the magnetic recording head discussed herein is applicable to a data storage device such as a hard disk drive (HDD) as well as a tape drive such as a tape embedded drive (TED) or an insertable tape media drive. An example TED is described in co-pending patent application titled “Tape Embedded Drive,” U.S. application Ser. No. 16/365,034, filed Mar. 31, 2019, assigned to the same assignee of this application, which is herein incorporated by reference. As such, any reference in the detailed description to a HDD or tape drive is merely for exemplification purposes and is not intended to limit the disclosure unless explicitly claimed. Furthermore, reference to or claims directed to magnetic recording devices are intended to include both HDD and tape drive unless HDD or tape drive devices are explicitly claimed.
It is also to be understood that aspects disclosed herein, such as the magnetic recording heads, may be used in magnetic sensor applications outside of HDD's and tape media drives such as TED's, such as spintronic devices other than HDD's and tape media drives. As an example, aspects disclosed herein may be used in magnetic elements in magnetoresistive random-access memory (MRAM) devices (e.g., magnetic tunnel junctions as part of memory elements), magnetic sensors or other spintronic devices.
The spintronic device 330 uses spin-transfer torque (STT) to facilitate magnetic recording. The present disclosure contemplates that the spintronic device 330 may be used with spin-orbital torque (SOT).
The spintronic device 330 includes a multilayer structure 310 disposed on the main pole 220, a spin torque layer 320 (STL), and a first spacer layer 390. In one embodiment, which can be combined with other embodiments, the STL 320 is a spin polarization layer (SPL) or a spin polarizing layer. The sides of the spintronic device 330 at the MFS are ion milled or patterned, for example, to form the spintronic device shape as shown. The multilayer structure 310 is disposed between and in contact with the main pole 220 and the STL 320. The multilayer structure 310 is between the main pole 220 and the trailing shield 240. The multilayer structure 310 is used in place of a seed layer disposed on the main pole 220. The first spacer layer 390 is between the STL 320 and the trailing shield 240. A TS hot seed layer 380 is over the first spacer layer 390. The TS hot seed layer 380 is magnetically stitched with a notch of the TS 240.
A current source 270 is configured to supply a current to the spintronic device 330. The current supplied using the current source 270 facilitates an electron flow from the main pole 220 through the spintronic device 330 to the TS 240. The direction of the current supplied through the spintronic device 330 is opposite of the direction of the electron flow through the spintronic device 330. Polarized electrons from the STL 320 are reflected off from a first interface 301 between the TS 240 and the first spacer layer 390, such as between the TS hot seed layer 380 and the first spacer layer 390, back toward the STL 320. Spin accumulation and spin torque occurs at a second interface 302 between the first spacer layer 390 and the STL 320.
The STL 320 is initially magnetized in the same direction as magnetization of the main pole 220 and the TS 240, which is in a direction from the main pole 220 to the TS 240 and is in the same direction as the electron flow. The spin torque acts on the STL 320 causing spin flipping of the STL 320 and precession of magnetization M of the STL 320. Precession of the magnetization M of the STL 320 can generate an assisting magnetic field, such as a DC field, emitted to a magnetic recording medium. The assisting magnetic field reduces the coercive force of the recording medium and enhances the write field from the main pole 220 to write to the recording medium.
The bias voltage (Vjump) at which spin flipping occurs is estimated according to formula (1):
Vjump=Jc*RA (1)
in which Jc is the critical current density for STT switching against the gap field.
The multilayer structure 310 includes a first layer structure 311 on the main pole 220 and a second layer structure 314 on the first layer structure 311. The spintronic device includes at least one negative polarization layer (NPL) 312.

In one example, the negative polarization layer 312 is magnetically stitched to the main pole 220.

The ferromagnetic layer 313, if includes, includes a thickness T4 that is up to 6 nm.

The main pole 220 of the write head 210 shown in
In
The multilayer structure 310 facilitates operation of the STL 320. As an example, negative spin accumulation of the NPL 312 facilitates generating direct torque on the STL 320 to facilitate spin flipping of the STL 320 against the field direction, and to facilitate precession of the magnetization of the STL 320. The NPL 312 facilitates applying torque to the STL 320 from both sides of the STL 320, such as both in a direction from the TS 240 and to the STL 320, and in a direction from the main pole 220 and to the STL 320. As an example, the negative interface polarization factor (γ) of the second layer structure 314 enhances the negative spin polarization of the NPL 312. Such aspects facilitate lower voltage or lower current for the spintronic device 330, 395 to facilitate reliability and effective performance of the write head 210 while facilitating high moment-thickness product and high ADC of magnetic recording for the write head 210. Such aspects also facilitate modularity for various configurations of the write head 210 and the materials that may be used for various components of the write head 210, which may further lower current density and/or voltage of the write head 210.
Aspects of the multilayer structure 310 facilitate a reduction in critical current for flipping or switching of the STL 320 that is up to 30% relative to a seed layer on the main pole 220, such as a reduction in critical current density Jc of up to 15%-20%, due to the increase in spin-transfer torque of the STL 320.
Benefits of the present disclosure include simple and effective facilitated magnetic recording performance and reliability; increased ADC for magnetic recording; reduced voltage or current while maintaining or facilitating increased moment-thickness product, magnetic recording head performance and reliability; modularity in magnetic recording head materials; and modularity in magnetic recording device design configurations.
