ABSTRACT:
An air bearing slider for supporting a transducer proximate a rotating disc utilizes a raised air bearing surface that interacts with pressurized air to support the slider. The slider includes a slider body that has a leading edge and trailing edge relative to motion of the rotating disc. The air bearing surface has a leading edge portion proximate the leading edge of the slider body that is greater in width than a trailing edge portion positioned proximate and central with respect to the trailing edge of the slider body. The leading edge of the raised air bearing surface extends the entire width of the raised air bearing portion.
