Abstract
To achieve magnetic recording densities of more than 10 Tb/in^2, the head-disk interface (HDI) spacing should be less than 2-3 nm. Thus far, thermally assisted magnetic recording (TAMR) technology has been studied and developed to achieve such ultra-high magnetic recording densities. However, the use of ultra-thin liquid lubricant films as well as DLC thin films on the disk surface in TAMR leads to critical issues with regard to the HDI. In addition, HDD technology with head-disk assembly mechanism in which He gas is enclosed has been developed. In this study, the effect of lubricant bonding mechanisms on lubricant depletion has been studied. Furthermore, the mechanisms of lubricant depletion due to laser heating have bean investigated and discussed.
