摘要:
A dual layer pre-recorded optical disc includes a transparent substrate, a partially reflective layer, a transparent spacer layer, and a highly reflective layer. One pattern of data pits is provided on the substrate, adjacent the partially reflective layer, and another pattern of data pits is provided on the spacer layer, adjacent the highly reflective layer. The transparent spacer layer comprises at least two sublayers. The partially reflective layer may be made of silicon carbide. A substrate-incident beam can be used to read data encoded in either data pit pattern depending on which layer the laser is focused upon. The dual layer disc has twice the data storage capacity of conventional single layer discs.

Perpendicular magnetic media are described for use in magnetic recording and data storage. Seed layer compositions are described which can facilitate perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in subsequently deposited magnetic layers. In particular, nickel-iron-chromium (NiFeCr) alloys or nickle-chromium (NiCr) alloys can be used as seed layers which cause a subsequently multi-layered magnetic stack to assume perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. In this manner, high perpendicular magnetic anisotropy can be achieved and storage densities of media may be increased.

Methods of preparing an electrode are provided. A metal powder can be sintered onto a portion of a lead wire to form a connection region. An additional metal powder can be de-oxidation sintered onto the connection region to form the electrode. The oxides formed during the de-oxidation sintering are then removed from the electrode.

摘要:
A thermomagnetic recording system achieves high areal bit density by combining the high linear bit density of magnetic recording and the high track density typical of magneto-optic recording. The system employs a medium which comprises a ferrimagnetic recording material having a compensation temperature approximately equal to ambient operating temperature, yet small coercivity and high saturation magnetization at elevated temperatures. A source of heat (preferably a laser) controls the magnetic properties of the material. Data is recorded and played back with high performance magnetic recording heads, producing direct overwrite capability, at temperatures less than the Curie point of the material.
摘要:
Methods of preparing an electrode are provided. A metal lead wire is pre-treated to facilitate bonding of the lead wire to a metal powder during subsequent de-oxidation sintering. A connection region can be formed by directly contacting the metal lead wire with a liquid reactive metal. After removal of resultant oxides, an additional metal powder can be de-oxidation sintered onto the connection region to form the electrode. The oxides formed during the de-oxidation sintering are then removed from the electrode.
摘要:
A magnetoresistive element has a height that extends from the air-bearing surface of a head. The height is determined by a slot in the head extending from the air-bearing surface adjacent the sensor portion at an acute angle to both the air bearing surface and the height of the magnetoresistive element to separate the magnetoresistive element into the sensor portion and a dormant portion. Alternatively, the height is determined by a recess of design depth in the magnetoresistive element at the air bearing surface. Alternatively, the height of the magnetoresistive element is determined by a stepped thickness to the first and second bias current carrying contacts along the height of the magnetoresistive element.
摘要:
Optical disc stampers, methods of manufacturing the optical disc stampers, systems for manufacturing the optical disc stampers, and methods of replicating optical discs using the stampers are disclosed. The optical disc stamper is formed directly on a substrate that supports a patterning material including at least one layer of a first material and at least one layer of a second material. The first and second materials can include a metal and semiconductor. The patterning material is exposed to energy in selected areas. Unexposed areas of the patterning material are then removed, resulting in an optical disc stamper. The first and second materials can form an amorphous alloy in the exposed selected areas that remains after removal of the unexposed patterning material. The optical disc stamper can be used in the replication of optical data storage discs. Also disclosed arc systems for practicing the methods to produce optical data storage disc stampers.
