Abstract
A magnetic write head having independent trailing and side magnetic shields. The side shields and trailing shields are independently of one another so that they can have throat heights that are different from one another. This advantageously allows the magnetic potential between the write pole and side shields to be controlled independently of one another without relying on the side gap and trailing gap thicknesses. Furthermore, magnetic performance of the write head can be improved because the side shields can be constructed with varying tapered throat heights, while the throat height of the trailing shield can remain constant.
