ABSTRACT:
A high output, magnetoresistive head with a CPP structure is disclosed which reduces or prevents deformation near the air bearing surface of the read element portion layer at the time of air bearing surface processing. In the CPP structure magnetoresistive head, the deformation near the air bearing surface as a result of mechanical polishing during the air bearing surface processing can be reduced by forming deformation prevention layers having a higher shear modulus than a first ferromagnetic layer, and a second ferromagnetic layer between a magnetoresistive film and at least one of a lower shield layer and an upper shield layer.
