Abstract
An optical disc data storage system includes an optical disc having a data surface. An actuator arm having a distal end is selectively radially positionable adjacent the data surface. A transducing element is carried on a slider which is coupled to the distal end of the actuator arm. The slider includes an air bearing surface and the transducing element includes an optical mesa adjacent the air bearing surface. The optical mesa is spaced apart from the data surface whereby contact between the data surface and the mesa structure is prevented.
