Abstract
A method for preventing TMR (tunnel magneto-resistance) MRR (magneto-resistance resistance) drop of a slider, comprises steps of: positioning a row bar constructed by a plurality of slider structural bodies on a tray, each slider body having a pole tip with a TMR element; loading the tray into a processing chamber and evacuating the processing chamber to a preset pressure; introducing a processing gas containing oxygen gas into the processing chamber; and exposing the slider structural bodies to an etching means in the atmosphere of the processing gas to oxidize a surface of the TMR element to form an oxidation layer thereon. The invention also discloses a method for forming micro-texture on a surface of slider in same process, and a method for forming such a slider.
