Figure 3.7: The simplified read head model (left) for perpendicular record<strong>in</strong>g. In the right<br />

picture the mirror heads are <strong>in</strong>dicated, which replace the SUL with its high permeability<br />

[22].<br />

The headfield for perpendicular record<strong>in</strong>g is shown <strong>in</strong> Figure 3.8. Here the gap was aga<strong>in</strong><br />

60 nm and the sens<strong>in</strong>g layer thickness 5 nm. The fly<strong>in</strong>g height was assumed to be 10 nm and<br />

the distance ABS to SUL 20 nm. The series expansion was aborted after the first 10 terms.<br />

For perpendicular record<strong>in</strong>g, where the data layer is ma<strong>in</strong>ly magnetized <strong>in</strong> z-direction, only<br />

H contributes to the signal field. So for perpendicular record<strong>in</strong>g the signal field is<br />

n<br />

H , z<br />

approximately proportional to the magnetization of the data layer. In contrast to longitud<strong>in</strong>al<br />

record<strong>in</strong>g the bits are detected and not their transitions.<br />
