ABSTRACT:
A magnetic head assembly includes a magnetic recording head, a main magnetic pole, a head slider, a suspension and an actuator arm. The magnetic recording head includes a main magnetic pole having an air bearing surface facing a magnetic recording medium; and a stacked structure having, a first magnetic layer, a second magnetic layer, and an intermediate layer provided between the first magnetic layer and the second magnetic layer. A stacked plane of the stacked structure is inclined with respect to the air bearing surface. The magnetic recording head is mounted on the head slider. The head slider is mounted on one end of the suspension. The actuator arm is connected to the other end of the suspension.
