    摘要: A data storage medium is introduced. The data storage medium from which information is reproduced by scanning a surface of the medium with a tip positioned in contact therewith comprises a recording layer within which data values are determined by the topographical state at the data item location. The material of said recording layer comprises a component that is generating an etchant. The etchant removes the naturally occurring surface oxide layer of the tip which keeps the tip sharp and works against tip wear.

    摘要: To store information in a ferroelectric material, a sample probe is used to bring about mechanical action on individual domains and thereby to cause a reversal of polarization in the individual domains, with electrodes situated below the ferroelectric material being able to have a bias applied to them to stabilize the change/reversal of polarization. The reversal of polarization causes an alteration in the surface topography of the ferroelectric material, and this alteration can be used to read the information. The stored information is therefore obtained by ascertaining the surface topography of the ferroelectric material. The information is written and read using an AFM tip, with the tip being able to be operated in contact or tapping mode for the purpose of writing, and additionally in noncontact mode for the purpose of reading.
