    摘要: A method for texturing a disc substrate, and a particle slurry for use in the method. The slurry includes two populations of different-size particles, preferably one population containing particles in a 3 micron size range, and a second population containing particles in a 1 micron size range. The particles, when used to abrade the surface of a disc, create a surface texture characterized by a low peak/peak-to-valley ratio.

    摘要: A method of evaluating the start/stop lifetime of a thin-film magnetic medium having an overcoat formed by sputtering a carbon-containing overcoat on a magnetic-film substrate. Resistance to erosion of the medium is evaluated by the time required to wear away the overcoat during a high-speed abrasion treatment. Lubricity is measured either in terms of the coefficient of friction of the disc, or in terms or surface hydrophobicity, as gauged by one of a number of measurable surface properties. The method allows for rapid assessment of disc wear properties, and can be used to optimize sputtering conditions required to achieve selected hardness and lubricity properties in a disc overcoat.

    摘要: Method and apparatus for treating the surface of a magnetic disc to remove surface asperities and loosely bound material. The disc is alternatively treated by contact with a pair of moving belt-like tapes, a pair of flying heads, and second contact with the belt-like tape, with the disc carried at a fixed position for rotation in a vertical plane throughout, but rotated at a higher speed during the intermediate flying waffling step. The first and/or second tape-treatment steps can be used to apply a lubricant film to the disc surface.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a method for cleaning a substrate in a cleaning module is disclosed. The method includes an operation that receives the substrate into a first level of the cleaning module. In another operation, the substrate is spun while contemporaneously applying a cleaning fluid to top and bottom surfaces of the substrate. In yet another operation, the substrate is spun at a second level of the cleaning module. The method also includes an operation to dry the substrate in an enclosed cavity at a third level of the cleaning module.

    摘要: Substrate preparation systems comprising multi-zone cascade brush scrubbers having sonic assemblies disposed between one or more of the scrubber zones for cleaning of disk-shaped substrates, including silicon wafers and disks for data storage devices, such as hard disk drives (HDD), compact discs (CD) and digital video discs (DVD). The system method combines a sonic particle dislodgement/removal assembly into a cascade brush scrubber line comprising a longi-tudinal array of brush pairs in which the substrates process through preparation zones defined by each pair of brushes, the substrates being transited longitudinally through the zones while rotating on an axis normal to their faces. Piezoelectric transducer arrays transmit sound energy to one or both face(s) of the substrate to dislodge and/or remove particles, and the scrubber simultaneously or thereafter sweeps away the particulates. The sonic energy may be ultrasonic, megasonic, or both, applied to the substrate surface(s) in alternating or sequential process steps.

    摘要: Method and apparatus for texturing a substrate for use in a magnetic recording disc. A texturing pad used in the invention has inner and outer coaxial regions, with the outer region being more compressible. When the pad and a substrate are rotated about parallel, offset axes, and pressed against one another in the presence of a particle slurry, the inner, less compressible region of the pad produces a deeper-groove texturing on an inner annular surface region of the disc.

    摘要: Liquid is removed from batches of substrates by apparatus and methods for drying substrates that have been wet in an elongated liquid bath. The substrates are moved relative to the bath and an elongated gas-filled volume at rates of movement selected according to the location of the batches of substrates in the bath or the volume. As an example, the substrates and the bath are separated at a controlled rate to form a thin layer of liquid on each substrate as each substrate enters the gas-filled volume. The gas-filled volume is defined by an elongated hot chamber and hot gas directed into the volume and across the substrates and out of the volume continuously transfers thermal energy to the substrates . The flow rate of the gas into the volume is related to introduction of the substrates into the bath to avoid disturbing the liquid in the bath. The thermal energy transferred to the substrates in the volume evaporates the thin layer from the substrates without decreasing the rate of separation of the substrates and the bath below the maximum rate of such separation at which a meniscus will form between the bath and the surface of one of the substrates during such separation. Relative humidity in the volume is controlled by sensing the relative humidity and regulating the speed of a fan that draws gas from the volume.
