  • Abstract
    Nonlinearity caused by the erasure effect was investigated experimentally for a metal-in-gap head (minicomposite type) having a 3-μm sendust layer at the trailing edge of the gap. Decreasing the peak value of media modulation noise is shown to reduce nonlinearity. The written transition width changes the media modulation noise at each recording frequency, but does not change the peak value of the media noise
