The effects of dynamic domain instability on popcorn noise probabilities were studied by correlating the measured popcorn noise probabilities with the instantaneous observations of dynamic domain states of thin-film: heads during and after writing. Heads with large peak popcorn noise probabilities at intermediate values of write current amplitude were observed to exhibit asymmetric domain patterns and occa.sional popping wall motion in the yoke structure during writing. The occurrences of dynamic domain instability were imaged by comparing many instantaneous domain patterns at 10 ,US after a specific write current excitation. Delayed-relaxation Barkhausen wall jumps near the backgap closure were observed occasionally in several noisy heads. Quantitative &orrelation between the probabilities of popcorn noise. and dynamic domain instability was also obtained in a very noisy head. :Dynamic domain instabilities in the yoke are thus responsibIe for the peak popcorn noise probabi1itie.s in thin-film heads.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
