摘要:
The present invention provides a high density magnetic recording apparatus capable of performing a magnetic write to a magnetic memory cell therein by directly applying current into the memory cell without using external magnetic field; and performing a record read from the cell structure. To reduce the current density required for magnetization reversal by spin injection, the magnetic recording medium is irradiated with laser light so as to heat a magnetic memory cell to a temperature higher than the room temperature but lower than the Curie temperature. While the coercivity of the magnetic recording medium is effectively lowered, magnetic write operation is performed by applying external current into the magnetic memory cell.
摘要:
The invention relates to a write-once read-many memory element (1), or an assembly thereof, which comprises a substrate (2) on which electrodes (3) are provided and between which a layer (4) is sandwiched, which memory element includes a conjugated polymer or oligomer as well as a dopant. This memory element can be written by temporarily applying a sufficiently high voltage to the electrodes so that the electroconductivity of the layer is permanently reduced.
摘要:
An improvement on the information record/reproducing apparatus, utilizing a tunnel current generated in a flat information recording medium by a needle-shaped probe electrode (36) positioned close to the recording medium (38). In order to prevent deterioration of the probe and the recording medium by the atmosphere, these components are hermetically sealed in a container (44),(214),(415), with or without the driving mechanism. The sealed structure is made detachable from the main apparatus (215), thus facilitating manufacture, replacement and maintenance.
摘要:
A mass memory device is formed by combining a piezoelectric bimorph cantilever (214) with a recording surface (212) having a number of storage locations to and from which digital information is transferred using a scanning tunneling microscope or an atomic force microscope mode of operation. Controls circuits (240) are provided for controlling the scanning of the recording surface (212) and for writing and reading information into and from the recording surface. An image storage system stores images captured from an optical sensor using piezoelectric bimorph cantilevers for reading and writing digital information on recording surfaces.
