    摘要: A method and system for determining contact potential voltages between a slider body and a hard disk of a hard disk drive. In embodiments of the present invention, at least one continuous negative direct current (DC) voltage is applied between a slider body and a hard disk of a hard disk drive. Then, at least one continuous positive direct current (DC) voltage is applied between the slider body and the hard disk. A contact potential voltage between the slider body and the hard disk is then determined in response to the applying of the direct current voltages.

    摘要: A method for simultaneously measuring contact potential and slider body clearance in a hard disk drive. In embodiments of the present invention, a plurality of direct current (DC) pulses are applied between a slider body and a hard disk of a magnetic disk drive. The contact potential voltage between the slider body and the hard disk is determined in response to applying the plurality of direct current (DC) pulses. The voltage of the plurality of direct current (DC) pulses is increased until a contact between the slider body and the hard disk is detected.

    摘要: A method and system for determining localized contact potential voltages and localized clearance data between a slider body and a hard disk of a hard disk drive. In embodiments of the present invention, a plurality of direct current (DC) pulses are applied between said slider body and a discreet location of the hard disk. In embodiments of the present invention, the discreet location of the hard disk comprises a portion of a data track of the hard disk. In embodiments of the present invention, a variation in the clearance of the slider body is determined when a given voltage is applied. Furthermore, a first set of DC pulses has a positive/negative bias while a second set of DC pulses has a negative/positive bias. The voltage of the sets of DC pulses is increased until a contact between the slider body and the hard disk is detected.

    摘要: A process for creating a "distant bump array" surface texture in a magnetic recording disk for reducing stiction and the disk so textured. The texturing process uses a tightly focused diode-pumped Nd:YLF or Nd:YVO.sub.4 or other solid-state laser that is pulsed with a 0.3-90 nanosecond pulse train to produce a plurality of distantly-spaced bumps in the disk surface. The bump creation process is highly controllable, permitting repeated creation of a preselected bump profile such as a smooth dimple or one with a central protrusion useful for low stiction without close spacing or elevated "roughness". Some bump profiles permit texturing of the data-storage region of the disk surface for low stiction without materially affecting magnetic data storage density.

    摘要: A method of swaging a head gimbal assembly (HGA) to an actuator arm comprises positioning a tubular element on the HGA adjacent a hole in the actuator arm; restraining the subassembly; providing a rod formed from a shape memory alloy (SMA), the SMA having a martensitic phase at a low temperature and an austenitic phase above a phase transition temperature that is higher than the low temperature, the rod having an initial diameter that is smaller than diameters of the tubular element and the hole; extending the rod through the tubular element and hole; heating the rod above the phase transition temperature such that the rod expands to a second diameter that is greater than the initial diameter to plastically deform the HGA and swage together the HGA and actuator arm to form an assembly; cooling the rod and removing the rod from the assembly such that the rod returns to the initial diameter.
