Abstract:
A process of reducing friction, which is encountered in molds utilized in injection molded, solder processing, and wherein glass mold plates have mold pits etched therein. The mold pates are subjected to a heat treatment so as to smooth or round-off sharp edges along the periphery of the mold pits.
Abstract:
In an automated library, data cartridges, such as magnetic tape cartridges, are stored in storage cells and accessed by data storage drives. An accessor with a gripper transports cartridges between storage cells and storage drives. Cartridges are prioritized according to their relative importance. A processor manages the placement of the cartridges in cells by having higher priority cartridges stored closer to the front of multi-cartridge cells than cartridges with a lower priority. Cartridges with a higher priority may also be stored closer to a storage drive than cartridges with a lower priority. A pusher may be used to push cartridges towards the front of multi-cartridge cells with an empty position to enable the gripper to reach the front cartridge.
Abstract:
A method for producing a compliant thermal interface device for cooling an integrated circuit includes steps of: cutting a plurality of high thermal conductivity sheets according to at least one pattern, the sheets made up of a first material; forming spring elements in at least one of the plurality of sheets; coating the sheets with a second material, wherein the second material is different from the first material; stacking the high thermal conductivity sheets; and bonding areas of the stacked sheets using thermo-compression bonding.
Abstract:
In an automated library, data cartridges, such as magnetic tape cartridges, are stored in multi-cartridge storage cells or shelves and accessed by data storage drives. An accessor with a deep-reach gripper transports cartridges between storage cells and storage drives. The gripper is capable of extending into the cell to grip and remove a cartridge stored in any position therein. The gripper may include a scissors mechanism, a set of units extendable with lead screws, or another extendable mechanism.

Abstract:
A structure for cooling an electronic device. The structure includes a first layer disposed over the electronic device for providing a heat path from the electronic device and a bottom layer including a fin structure and a lower surface opposite the fin structure, wherein the lower surface contacts the first layer. The structure further includes a liquid layer disposed over the fin structure of the bottom layer and a top layer including a fin structure and a top surface opposite the fin structure, wherein the fin structure of the top layer contacts the liquid layer. The structure further includes a heat sink in contact with or integral with the top layer.
Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a technique to correct timing mark position error in self-servo write (SSW). In one embodiment, a method of correcting a timing mark position error of a SSW pattern of a disk drive comprises writing a plurality of timing mark bursts over a plurality of steps on a disk, the plurality of timing mark bursts including at least one misaligned burst having an intentional misalignment in a first step with respect to a corresponding burst in a neighboring second step; reading the misaligned burst and the corresponding burst at a seam between the first step and the second step to obtain a measured burst amplitude; and using the measure burst amplitude to obtain a timing mark position error, which may involve comparing the measured burst amplitude and an expected burst amplitude computed based on the intentional misalignment between the misaligned burst and the corresponding burst to obtain a timing mark position error.
