Giant spin-seebeck effect induced magnon transfer torque-assisted MAMR
A magnetic recording device includes a main pole, a coil around the main pole, a trailing shield, and a spin torque oscillation device between the main pole and the trailing shield. The spin torque oscillation device includes one or more first layers, a spacer layer, and a field generation layer. The one or more first layers are over the main pole. The one or more first layers have a first heat conductance or include a low-heat-conductance material. The spacer layer is over the one or more first layers. The field generation layer is over the spacer layer. A heat sink is in contact with the trailing shield. The heat sink has a second heat conductance or includes a high-heat-conductance material. The second heat conductance of the heat sink is higher than the first heat conductance of the one or more first layers.
