Abstract:
A multilayer superlattice having a structure with many interfaces of magnetic/non-magnetic layers could increase the coercivity of a magnetic recording medium by increasing the interfacial anisotropy. A soft magnetic layer comprising interstitial nitrogen between the substrate and the multilayer superlattice reduces the surface roughness between the substrate magnetic layer. This in turn reduces the fly height and boosts the coercivity of the magnetic recording medium.
Abstract:
A non-magnetic substrate having a super-clean and defect-free smooth surface for ultra high-density GMR recording is produced by a surface treatment called a “ZP” process. The term “ZP” means zap cutting with photon ozone treatment of the cut surface. “Zap cutting” is a process for cutting asperity of the non-magnetic substrate's surface. The ZP process could be applied to the whole substrate or certain areas of the non-magnetic substrate. The non-magnetic substrate could be used for disk drives that use either a landing zone design or a load/unload mechanism. The resulting magnetic recording medium exhibits improved flying stability, glide performance, reliability, tribology and long term durability for providing zero glide hits.
Abstract:
Reproducible texturing of magnetic recording media is enhanced by sputtering a buffer layer, such as Ni—P, on a nonmagnetic substrate, prior to sputtering a textured bump layer. A magnetic recording medium comprising a sputter textured metal layer and high coercivity is achieved by employing an underlayer, such as NiAl or FeAl, preferably a composite underlayer containing a chromium or chromium-alloy layer and a NiAl layer, on the sputter textured layer. Advantageously, the buffer layer, underlayer, textured bump layer, magnetic layer and carbon overcoat can be sputter deposited in a single apparatus.
Abstract:
A magnetic recording medium is formed with a laser textured glass or glass-ceramic substrate. The use of a pulsed, focused laser light beam, such as a CO.sub.2 derived laser light beam, enables the formation of an accurately textured landing zone on a glass or glass-ceramic substrate which is substantially replicated on subsequently applied layers.
Abstract:
A magnetic recording medium is textured with a pulsed laser light beam through a multiple lens focusing system. The use of a multiple lens focusing system enables the formation of a plurality of relatively uniform protrusions smaller than those obtained with a single lens focusing system, thereby avoiding abrupt local profile changes. In an embodiment, the laser light beam is split, as by offsetting the lenses, to obtain a plurality of pairs of even smaller protrusions than obtained with a laser light beam having a centralized energy profile. The pulsed, multiple lens focused laser light beam can be used to texture a substrate, underlayer or magnetic layer. The resulting laser textured magnetic recording medium exhibits improved flying stability, glide performance and reliability.
Abstract:
A magnetic recording medium comprising a glass or glass-ceramic substrate is formed by sequentially depositing thereon a partially oxidized NiP seed layer, an underlayer and a magnetic layer. The partially oxidized NiP seed layer is formed by reactive sputtering in a gas mixture of argon and oxygen. The resulting magnetic recording medium exhibits low medium noise and high coercivity rendering it suitable for high density magnetic recording.
Abstract:
A magnetic recording medium having a high areal recording density of about 3 to about 20 Gb/in.sup.2, an Mrt of about 0.30 to about 0.60 memu/cm.sup.2, a coercivity greater than 2,500 Oersteds and a coercivity squareness of about 0.70 to about 0.95 is obtained by depositing one or more pairs of magnetic layers comprising a magnetically isotropic layer directly on a magnetically anisotropic layer. Chromium intermediate layers are employed to separate each pair of magnetically isotropic/anisotropic layers. In one embodiment, the magnetically anisotropic layer comprises a cobalt-base alloy containing chromium and tantalum and the magnetically isotropic layer comprises a cobalt-base layer containing chromium, platinum and tantalum.

Abstract:
A magnetic recording medium comprising a magnetic alloy layer having a bicrystal cluster microstructure and, hence, reduced medium noise, is formed by depositing a seed layer on a glass or a glass-ceramic material substrate, oxidizing the seed layer, depositing an underlayer, such as chromium, on the oxidized seed layer, whereby the underlayer exhibits a (200) crystallographic orientation. A magnetic alloy epitaxially grown on the underlayer having a (200) crystallographic orientation exhibits a bicrystal cluster microstructure.

A light therapy device includes a number of light emitting elements, a detection module, a determination module, and a control module. The detection module is configured to detect a body parameter of a human body. The determination module is in communication with the detection module and configured to receive the body parameter and output a fatigue level corresponding to the body parameter. The control module is in communication with the determination module and the light emitting elements. The control module is configured to receive the fatigue level and control the light emitting elements to emit lights with an irradiation intensity for a preset period of time in response to receiving the fatigue level. The irradiation intensity and the preset period of time have a predetermined relationship with the fatigue level.
