As the head-disk spacing is reduced in order to achieve higher areal density, dynamic stability of the slider is compromised by a variety of proximity interactions. One of the key factors is the disk topography, which provides dynamic excitation to the low-flying sliders and strongly influences the dynamics and stability of the slider. Several experimental and numerical studies have been done on the...
