摘要:
A process for patterned electroplating involves the steps of: (i) coating a substrate with a layer of amninoalkylpyridine which acts as an adhesion promoter; (ii) coating the adhesion layer with a radiation sensitive polymeric resist; (iii) imagewise exposing the film to radiation; (iv) developing the image to patternwise expose the substrate; (v) electroplating metal onto the exposed portions of the substrate; and (vi) removing the remaining polymeric film from the substrate.

A process for fabricating sliders where the sliders are held in place during processing by a solid matrix material is described. A thin coating of a release-layer material is applied on the sliders before encapsulation in the matrix material. The release-layer material is polyvinyl alcohol and more preferably high molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol which is highly hydrolyzed. Use of the release-layer of the invention maintains the process resistance while providing the advantage of allowing easier removal of the matrix material after it is no longer needed. The release-layer can be applied to encapsulant materials including epoxies, acrylates, polyimides, silsesquioxanes and others. After the selected fabrication process such as the formation of air-bearing features an appropriate solvent is applied to soften the polyvinyl alcohol film and allow clean debonding of the sliders.

Patterning a surface, comprising at least one feature having silicon coupled to a substrate, is described herein. In one embodiment a method is described for patterning a surface which comprises at least one feature having silicon and at least one feature having carbon coupled to a substrate. The surface is coated with 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate, and a photoresist is applied the 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate coated surface. The photoresist is imaged and the surface is etched. The photoresist is then removed.

A slider assembly is provided comprising a plurality of sliders bonded by a debondable solid encapsulant comprised of different first and second polymers The solid encapsulant is comprised of a polymer prepared by polymerizing an encapsulant fluid comprising a homogeneous mixture of first and second constituents. The first constituent is comprised of a first monomer suitable for in situ polymerization to form the first polymer. The second constituent is comprised of the second polymer or a second monomer suitable for in situ polymerization to form the second polymer. The first constituent does not substantially react with the second constituent. Each slider has a surface that is free from the encapsulant. The encapsulant-free surfaces are coplanar to each other. Also provided are methods for forming the assembly and methods for patterning a slider surface using the encapsulant.

摘要:
A system and method for patterning a master disk or “stamper” to be used for nanoimprinting magnetic recording disks uses an air-bearing slider that supports an aperture structure within the optical near-field of a resist layer on a rotating master disk substrate. Laser pulses directed to the input side of the aperture are output to the resist layer. The aperture structure includes a metal film reflective to the laser radiation with the aperture formed in it. The aperture has a size less than the wavelength of the incident laser radiation and is maintained by the air-bearing slider near the resist layer to within the radiation wavelength. The timing of the laser pulses is controlled to form a pattern of exposed regions in the resist layer, with this pattern ultimately resulting in the desired pattern of data islands and nondata islands in the magnetic recording disks when they are nanoimprinted by the master disk.
