摘要:
A magnetic recording medium has a recording layer, a protection layer and a lubricant layer that are stacked above a substrate. The lubricant layer includes a bond layer in contact with the protection layer, and a mobile layer at a surface of the magnetic recording medium and having a bonding strength weaker than that of the bond layer with respect to the protection layer. A height of convex portions at a surface portion of the mobile layer is approximately 0.3 nm or less.

This perpendicular magnetic recording medium has a nonmagnetic substrate and a magnetic recording structure formed above the substrate. The magnetic recording structure has at least a soft magnetic underlayer, an intermediate layer and a magnetic layer. The substrate has a surface profile curve whose angle of inclination is 2.0 degree or less, or whose surface roughness of the substrate, with cycle (wavelength components) in the ranges of 83 nm or less to 30 nm or less, is 0.15 nm or less.

A longitudinal magnetic recording medium includes, in order from a nonmagnetic substrate, a primary coat layer that contains Cr, an intermediate layer, a magnetic layer as a recording layer made of CoCr alloy, and a protective layer, the intermediate layer including a RuCr intermediate layer made of a RuCr alloy that contains 10 to 50 at % of Cr.
摘要:
A magnetic recording medium for high areal recording density that has excellent thermal fluctuation resistance and recording/reproduction characteristics, and a method of producing the same. The magnetic recording medium includes a glass substrate, an NiP layer having an oxide film on its surface provided on the glass substrate, a ground layer provided on the NiP layer, and a nonmagnetic intermediate layer provided on the ground layer. The magnetic recording medium further includes an exchange layer structure composed of a ferromagnetic layer and a nonmagnetic coupling layer provided on the nonmagnetic intermediate layer, and a magnetic recording layer provided on the exchange layer structure. The oxide film on the NiP layer is formed by introducing a small quantity of oxygen into a vacuum chamber of a sputter device. The formation and oxidation of the NiP layer are conducted at a temperature of not less than 140° C.

A magnetic recording medium includes a substrate, a nonmagnetic seed layer provided on the substrate, and a magnetic layer provided on the nonmagnetic seed layer via one or a plurality of layers. The nonmagnetic seed layer is made of NiAl having an oxygen concentration of approximately 1500 to 4000 ppm.
摘要:
A method is provided for reducing skin-friction of a ship moving through bubbly flow fields generated in proximity of hull surfaces by jetting gas through a plurality of jet nozzles provided on hull surfaces of the ship. The gas flow rate is controlled so as to establish a peak void fraction in a turbulent boundary layer, by applying an observation that the location of a peak void fraction shifts away in a direction normal to the hull surface with increasing gas flow rate through the jet nozzles.
摘要:
An electric component (electric-power convertor) and a pair of air-conditioning ducts are arranged side by side in a vehicle width direction. In case in which a rear end portion of the electric component is located in back of an outlet of the air-conditioning duct, the electric component is formed in a notch shape such that a duct-side edge portion thereof extends obliquely rearward and in a specified direction, in the vehicle width direction, away from the air-conditioning duct. Accordingly, it can be properly prevented that a conditioning air toward a passenger seated in a rear seat is blocked with the electric component arranged between a seat cushion of a front seat and a floor panel and receives any improper influence of heat emitted by the electric component, or the electric component receives any damage from the conditioning air.
摘要:
Transparent conducting oxides and production thereof are disclosed. An exemplary method of producing a transparent conducting oxide (TCO) material may comprise: providing a TCO target (110) doped with either a high-permittivity oxide or a low-permittivity oxide in a process chamber (100). The method may also comprise depositing a metal oxide on the target (110) to form a thin film having enhanced optical properties without substantially decreasing electrical quality.
