    摘要: A ferromagnetic film suitable for ultra-high density perpendicular recording, and a process for producing the film. The process generally entails forming a film of ferromagnetic material on a surface of a substrate, such that the film is characterized by perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and comprises a plurality of magnetic domains defined by domain walls perpendicular to a major surface of the film. The ferromagnetic film is formed to have a linear strain defect for the purpose of smoothing and stabilizing the domain walls during subsequent magnetization reversal of the ferromagnetic material. Such smoothing and stabilizing serves to control temporal magnetic noise due to motion of magnetic domains, arrest domain wall motion (reducing velocity) when the film is subjected to the magnetic reversal fields, and controls spatial magnetic noise due to domain wall jaggedness.

    摘要: A magnetic sensor, memory, and magnetic imager has been described for sensing a magnetic field in two directions concurrently incorporating a bar of semiconductor material having a rectangular cross-section, electrodes for introducing current along the length of the semiconductor material, and electrodes positioned on respective corners of the rectangular cross-section at a common distance along the current path whereby the Hall voltage may be detected concurrently in two directions. The memory includes the above magnetic sensor plus a disk having a magnetic layer thereon for storing information, a positioner for moving the disk, a memory control circuit and a signal processor circuit. The magnetic imager includes a plurality of magnetic field sensors positioned in a one or two-dimensional array. The invention overcomes the problem of mapping magnetic fields with high spatial resolution with high magnetic sensitivity in two directions concurrently.
