An electrically conductive sidewall for an electromagnetic transducer having a magnetoresistive sensor is formed as a layer oriented substantially perpendicular to other layers of the sensor, and is used as a mask for defining the width of the sensor. This allows the sensor to be made much thinner than...http://www.google.fr/patents/US6700759?utm_source=gb-gplus-shareBrevet US6700759 - Narrow track width magnetoresistive sensor and method of making
