Abstract :
The work done by various forces acting on the air bearing slider are analyzed and calculated, and their contributions to the flying stabilities of a sub-5 nm air bearing slider are evaluated quantitatively. It is found that the air bearing force plays an important role on the slider´s flying stabilities, while the intermolecular force and the friction force tend to excite the slider bouncing.
