Abstract
A composite slider, for use in an optical or magneto-optical head that includes an optical assembly, comprises a mounting block that supports optical components, and a body that provides an air bearing surface and that further supports optical components. The slider body and mounting block include channel patterns that define an optical path. The slider mounting block includes an adhesive release channel disposed transversely relative to the optical path. The slider body includes a vertical channel and a lateral channel within which the optical components are disposed.
