Abstract:
Methods of forming a magnetic storage disc, the method including depositing a carbon containing material on a magnetic recording layer to form a carbon containing layer, wherein the carbon containing layer is deposited using chemical vapor deposition, ion beam deposition, or filtered cathodic arc deposition; treating the carbon containing layer with a source of oxygen to form an oxygen layer; and depositing a lubricant on the oxygen layer.
Abstract:
A chemical vapor deposition source that includes at least one plate to which first and second electrical connection posts are coupled. The chemical vapor deposition source also includes a filament having a first end and a second end. The first end of the filament is electrically connected to the first electrical connection post and the second end of the filament is electrically connected to the second electrical connection post. The chemical vapor deposition source further includes at least one filament holder electrically insulated from the at least one plate. The at least one filament holder holds a portion of the filament between the first end and the second end.

Abstract:
Provided herein is an apparatus comprising a deposition chamber with a cathode, and a means for creating an asymmetric field about the cathode.
Abstract:
A deposition system may have at least a substrate mounted within a sealed chamber. A radio frequency energy can be supplied to an inductive source affixed to the sealed chamber with the inductive source having an inductive coil surrounding a tube. Coupling the radio frequency energy into a gas pumped into the sealed chamber creates plasma to uniformly deposit a thin layer on a surface of the substrate.
