SLIDER BACK SIDE ETCHING TO INCREASE SHEAR STRENGTH BETWEEN SUSPENSION AND SLIDER

摘要

The present disclosure generally relates to a slider having a textured bonding surface. The slider may be used in a hard disk drive (HDD). The textured bonding surface permits the slider to be effectively bonded to a suspension and prevent the slider from debonding from the suspension due to shear forces that may occur during HDD operation.
