Investigation of heat transfer across a nanoscale air gap between a flying head and a rotating disk

Abstract: Understanding nanoscale heat transfer at the head–disk interface (HDI) is necessary for thermal management of hard disk drives (HDDs), especially for heat-assisted magnetic recording and microwave-assisted magnetic recording. To accurately model the head temperature profile in HDDs, it is imperative to employ a spacing-dependent heat transfer coefficient due to the combined effects of pressurized air conduction and wave-based phonon conduction. Moreover, while flying at near-contact, the fly height and heat tr… Show more

“…As the storage density has increased in magnitude [Hsia, 2006] [32] and to maintain low bit error rates [Tang et al, 2007] [33], the clearance between the read/write element and the recording medium is reduced. The flying height has decreased from approximately 20 µm [Sakhalkar et al, 2020] [34] to a few nanometers in hard-disk drives. At the time nano features were fabricated on three disks in 1997, with flying heights in the 80-100 nm range [Grochowski & Goglia, 2016].…”

“…As storage density has increased in magnitude [32] and to maintain low bit error rates [33] the clearance between the read/write element and the recording medium has been reduced. The flying height has decreased from initially about 20 m [34] to a few nanometers in today's hard disk drives. At the time nano features were fabricated on three disks in 1997, flying heights were in the 80-100 nm range.…”
