Analysis of Pitch Static Attitude in Thermally Assisted Magnetic Recording Suspension

This paper presents the analysis of pitch static attitude(PSA) in thermally assisted magnetic recording(TAMR) suspension. The TAMR suspension using an optical fiber has high stiffness such as vertical, pitch and roll. Therefore, P-torque is greatly increased by the optical fiber. Also, flying height(FH) of the slider with TAMR suspension can be largely changed by PSA. In this paper, we focus on the FH by PSA of TAMR suspension. The FH is investigated using various PSA and proper PSA is proposed.
