ABSTRACT:
Various embodiments of a TAMR head having a magnetic core antenna (MCA) with a recessed plasmon layer are disclosed. An end of the plasmon layer is separated from the ABS by a magnetic layer that transmits the plasmon mode from the plasmon layer and transmits magnetic flux from an adjacent main pole layer. Both of the MCA and magnetic layer may have a triangular shape from an ABS view. There may be a non-magnetic separation layer between the MCA magnetic core and the main pole. Furthermore, a magnetic shield may be included with a side at the ABS, a side facing an end of a waveguide that transmits electromagnetic radiation to the MCA, and a side facing an edge of the plasmon layer. The recessed plasmon layer allows an improved overlay of the thermal heating spot on the magnetic field gradient at the magnetic medium that provides better TAMR performance.
