摘要
The linear density capability of thin-film media with a coercivity of about 2900 Oe and M(r)t ranging from 0.33 to 0.5 memu/cm(2) was studied with tie advanced dual-spin valve heads used for the 14 Gbits/in(2) areal density demonstration. With an on track error rate of 10(-7) as the criterion, a linear density as high as 546 KFCI was achieved with the optimum head/medium design. Track edge noise was studied. Its effect on linear density design was examined. These results were used for designing the 14 Gbits/in(2) system.
