摘要:
Magnetic shift registers in which data writing and reading is accomplished by moving the magnetic domain walls by electric current. Various embodiments of domain wall nodes or anchors that stabilize a domain wall are provided. In some embodiments, the wall anchors are elements separate from the magnetic track. In other embodiments, the wall anchors are disturbances in the physical configuration of the magnetic track. In still other embodiments, the wall anchors are disturbances in the material of the magnetic track.

Magnetic tunnel junction cells and methods of making magnetic tunnel junction cells that include a radially protective layer extending proximate at least the ferromagnetic free layer of the cell. The radially protective layer can be specifically chosen in thickness, deposition method, material composition, and/or extent along the cell layers to enhance the effective magnetic properties of the free layer, including the effective coercivity, effective magnetic anisotropy, effective dispersion in magnetic moment, or effective spin polarization.

A method of forming a layer of alpha-tantalum on a substrate including the steps of depositing a layer of titanium nitride on a substrate; and depositing a layer of alpha-tantalum on the layer of titanium nitride, wherein the deposition of the alpha-tantalum is carried out at temperatures below about 300° C.
摘要:
A magnetic stack having a free layer having a switchable magnetization orientation, a reference layer having a pinned magnetization orientation, and a barrier layer therebetween. The stack includes an annular antiferromagnetic pinning layer electrically isolated from the free layer and in physical contact with the reference layer. In some embodiments, the reference layer is larger than the free layer.

An insensitive crystalline high explosive molding powder, usable as a booster HE. The subject insensitive crystalline high explosive molding powder being manufactured by adding the crystalline high explosive, metal or semi-metal particles and a polymer or wax based binder to a solvent to form a solution, spray drying the solution to drive off the solvent, thereby co-precipitating the HE and binder to form granules in which the crystals of HE and metal particles are uniformly distributed in the binder.

Various embodiments of the present invention are generally directed to an apparatus and method for low temperature physical vapor deposition (PVD) of an amorphous thin film layer of material onto a substrate. A PVD chamber is configured to support a substrate and has a cathode target with a layer of sputtering material thereon, an anode shield, and a magnetron assembly adjacent the target. A high impulse power magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) power supply is coupled to the PVD chamber, the power supply having a charging circuit and a charge storage device. The power supply applies relatively high energy, low duty cycle pulses to the magnetron assembly to sputter, via self ionizing plasma, relatively low energy ions from the layer of sputtering material to deposit an amorphous thin film layer onto the substrate.

A transducing head according to the present invention includes a pair of electrodes, a pair of biasing elements and a magnetoresistive sensor. The magnetoresistive sensor is positioned between the pair of electrodes. The magnetoresistive sensor includes a pair of flux guides and a free layer positioned substantially co-planar with and between the pair of flux guides. The pair of electrodes are for providing a sense current to the free layer in a direction substantially perpendicular to a plane of the free layer. The pair of biasing elements are positioned on opposing sides of the magnetoresistive sensor for providing longitudinal bias to the free layer.

A spin valve read element for use with, for example, magnetic recording media, includes a permanent magnet as one of the multilayers that make up the spin valve. The spin valve may also include a pinned ferromagnetic layer, an antiferromagnetic coupling inducing layer, a reference ferromagnetic layer, an electroconductive layer, and/or a free ferromagnetic layer. Epitaxy breaking layers may also be advantageously positioned within the spin valve. The multilayers of the spin valve may be constructed as a current perpendicular to the plane or a current parallel to the plane type spin valve.
