Abstract :
The two-dimensional finite element method is used to study the effects of external fields on single-pole heads on a dual-layer medium. Profiles of the perpendicular field, Hy, under the pole tips are given for various geometries and field directions. A 1000× scale model was built to study the three-dimensional effects for external y-axis fields. The stray field problem is shown to be serious for y-axis fields, i.e. fields perpendicular to the disk surface
