Magnetic reader sensor with shield spacing improvement and better pin flip robustness

A process flow is disclosed for forming a MR sensor having an antiferromagnetic (AFM) layer recessed behind a bottom shield to reduce reader shield spacing and improve pin related noise. An AP2/AFM coupling layer/AP1 stack that extends from an air bearing surface to the MR sensor backside is formed...
