摘要:
A data/information storage and retrieval medium comprises: (a) a substrate having a layer stack thereon, the layer stack including an outer surface and comprising at least one magnetic or magneto-optical (“MO”) recording layer; and (b) a thin film or layer of a lubricant on the outer surface of the layer stack and comprised of a derivatized perfluoropolyether-based material including at least one generally linear perfluoropolyether chain and at least one phosphite antioxidant/stabilizer moiety attached to at least one end of at least one the chain.
摘要:
A system and method for improving the durability and reliability of recording media used in hard drives is disclosed. A protective overcoat made of diamond like carbon (DLC) is first deposited over a magnetic layer. A lubricant layer, typically containing Moresco lubricant or a perfluoropolyether (PFPE), is then deposited over the protective overcoat. Finally, the lubricant layer is exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light for a period of time.

According to some embodiments, a Single-Instruction/Multiple-Data averaging operation is presented. The averaging operation averages multiple sets of data elements, for example, two data elements each from a first source and a second source, producing a set of averages. In at least one embodiment, in a first adder stage, a first plurality of data elements are added to a second plurality of data elements, generating a plurality of intermediate results. In a second adder stage, multiple different combinations of the plurality of intermediate results are added together, generating a plurality of sum results. The two least significant bits of each sum result are discarded.

摘要:
A system and method for corrosion problems in magnetic media resulting from moisture penetrating through the carbon layer into the magnetic layer by diffusion or other methods are overcome by processing the carbon overcoat to stop and/or inhibit the moisture penetration. The process involves removing moisture channels from protective overcoats of thin film magnetic media by irradiating the protective overcoat with ultraviolet (UV) radiation in an inert hydrophobic chemical environment. Afterwards, the thin film magnetic media can be removed into ambient atmosphere where it is coated with a lubricant.
摘要:
A perfluoropolyether lubricant topcoat having at least one end-group having an epoxide ring is applied to a magnetic recording medium. Post-lubing treatment, such as ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation, of the perfluoropolyether lubricant topcoat initiates chemical bonding between the epoxide end-group and the medium surface. The lubricant of the present invention provides improved tribological performance over conventional lubricants.
摘要:
A data/information storage and retrieval medium, comprising: (a) a substrate including a layer stack thereon, the layer stack including a surface and at least one magnetic or magneto-optical (“MO”) recording layer; and (b) a thin film or layer of a lubricant formed on the surface of the layer stack, comprised of a derivatized perfluoropolyether compound comprising a generally linear perfluoropolyethcr chain and at least one Hindered Amine Light Stabilizer (“HALS”) moiety at at least one end of the chain.
摘要:
An ultrasonic transducer device includes a bottom electrode layer of a transducer cavity disposed over a substrate, and a plurality of vias that electrically connect the bottom electrode layer with the substrate. A bottom cavity layer is disposed over the bottom electrode layer, and one or more openings are formed in the bottom cavity layer so as to expose a region of the bottom electrode layer, wherein locations of the one or more openings are segments that are disposed proximate an outer perimeter of the transducer cavity and substantially correspond to locations where the plurality of vias are not disposed directly beneath.
摘要:
A single phase line switch having a phase line input connected to a phase line of the electric network and a phase line output connected to a negative line of the electric network via resistive loads or capacitive loads. The single phase line includes a first power supply unit connected between the phase line input and the phase line output, a second power supply unit, a controlled switch configured to control the second power unit to be on or off, and a micro control unit (MCU) configured to control the controlled switch to be switched on or off. The first power supply unit is configured to provide a power supply to the MCU when the controlled switch is off. The second power unit is configured to provide a power supply to the MCU and the controlled switch when the controlled switch is on, the second power supply unit being serially connected with the controlled switch, the second power supply and the controlled switch being parallel connected with the first power supply unit. The first power supply unit and the second power supply unit each comprises a voltage output terminal connected to a power supply end of the MCU.
