Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a magnetic recording head having dual layer leading shield or leading edge shield (LES). The layer closest to the main pole of the magnetic recording head has a shallow flare to enhance shape anisotropy while the layer farthest away from the main pole has a steep flare to initiate reversal of the direction of magnetization for the layer during the initialization. The layer closest to the main pole will retain a direction of magnetization that matches the direction of magnetization of the initialization direction. Both layers are sufficiently thick to ensure a two domain state that is favorable from an energy balance point of view.

Abstract: Methods are described for forming a mounting surface on a slider body. In one method, an adhesion layer can be deposited on a top surface of a slider body.

A second photolithography cycle deposits a second metal layer having a second thickness of at least 8 ?m over the first metal layer. The first and second layer form a mounting support on the top surface. In another method, the top surface is etched to form a mounting support.

Finally, the optimized rotation angle of deflector and wind speed are obtained where material particles are equally distributed. Meanwhile, the uniform and fast drying of the marine products in the swinging hull are achieved. This invention shows the great advantages of high efficiency, automation and continuity.

Abstract: A hard disk drive enclosure base includes a non-uniform disk shroud surface extending from a top to a floor, the shroud surface including a first portion having a first radius and clearance along the circumference of the shroud surface and a second portion having a lesser second radius and clearance. The second portion of the shroud surface may be positioned at multiple locations where the drive form factor is especially constraining and in view of the need for a sufficient seal land surface for applying a gasket seal around the perimeter of the inner cavity of the base part. Widening the disk shroud clearance where possible can reduce the shear stress exerted at the disk edges thereby reducing the windage drag and associated disk spindle motor power consumption, especially in the context of helium-filled drives in which disk flutter is less of an issue.
