In this article, the effect of slider air-bearing pressure on the saturated water vapor pressure is explained. The adsorbed water film thickness on slider and disk surfaces as a function of relative humidity at different temperatures is calculated. The dynamic adsorption/desorption equilibrium between water vapor and the adsorbed water films on slider and disk surfaces is discussed. The effects of...
To sustain an ultra-low and stable flying height (FH) is crucial for achieving high areal densities in magnetic recording. Recently, a new method called thermal flying height control (TFC) has been introduced to the latest generations of disk drives for precise control of slider-disk spacing. It is noted that the TFC technique is able to eliminate almost all static FH loss, but is unable to circumvent...
