Abstract

A method and system for providing a magnetic transducer is described. The method and system include providing a seed layer and providing at least one adjustment layer on the seed layer. The method and system also include providing a hard bias structure on the at least one adjustment layer. The seed layer has a first template including a first template dimension and a first texture. The at least one adjustment layer has a second template including a second template dimension and a second texture. The hard bias structure has a third template including a third template dimension and a third texture. The second template is between the first template and the third template.
