Patent ID: 8797686

Claim:
A magnetic recording transducer for use in a data storage device, comprising: a writer pole with a trailing side and a leading side opposite the trailing side, the trailing side comprising: a non-beveled surface beginning at a first vertex, the non-beveled surface extending in a direction away from an Air Bearing Surface (ABS); a first trailing side beveled section beginning at the first vertex and extending from the first vertex in a direction toward the ABS; the first trailing side beveled section beveled at a first bevel angle (α) from a direction perpendicular to the ABS; the leading side comprising a leading side beveled section; a first gap layer on and in contact with the non-beveled surface and the first trailing side beveled section; a second gap layer on a first section of the first gap layer and absent from a second section of the first gap layer, wherein the second section of the first gap layer on the first trailing side beveled section is nearer to the ABS than the first section, wherein the second gap layer has a thickness forming an edge, the edge forming a second bevel angle (β) from the direction perpendicular to the ABS, and β is less than 90 degrees; a write coil; a coil insulator on the second gap layer, wherein a portion of the write coil is embedded in the coil insulator; and a trailing shield on at least a portion of the first gap layer and on at least a portion of the second gap layer, wherein the portion of the second gap layer comprises a surface that is substantially perpendicular to the ABS.
