Abstract:
This invention provides a method for manufacturing a glass substrate for a magnetic disk comprising a chemical strengthening step. The method provides a glass substrate for a magnetic disk that can suppress the occurrence of very small waves in cooling a glass substrate after the chemical strengthening step, and, while preventing troubles such as head crush and thermal asperity, can realize lowered flying height of a magnetic head and high-density information recording, and is particularly suitable for application to small-size magnetic disks for portable information equipment. In the step of cooling after the chemical strengthening step, cooling treatment is carried out in which the glass substrate is brought into contact with a treatment liquid containing a melt of a material having a solidification temperature below that of a chemical strengthening salt. The temperature of the treatment liquid is regulated to be below the temperature of the chemical strengthening salt melted liquid in the chemical strengthening step.

Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a magnetic disk glass substrate including a chemical strengthening step is provided. In the method, chemical strengthening treatment is sufficiently performed over the entire main surfaces of a glass substrate. Consequently, the resulting magnetic disk glass substrate can provide a magnetic disk allowing the magnetic head to have a low flying height and achieving high-density information recording, and particularly a magnetic desk suitably used in small hard disk drives for portable information apparatuses. In the chemical strengthening step, a chemical strengthening agent is brought into contact with a glass substrate to perform ion exchange by allowing the chemical strengthening agent to flow with respect to the glass substrate, or by moving the glass substrate with respect to the chemical strengthening agent.
Abstract:
A method of controlling the temperature of a semiconductor substrate for prevention of any cracks from being formed in the semiconductor substrate event though semiconductors having different temperature rise/fall characteristics are fed into a reactor in which each semiconductor substrates is subjected to an oxidation, diffusion, or a chemical vapor deposition process. The temperatures are measured at various points in the semiconductor substrates in the heated reactor; the temperature rise/fall characteristic thereof is determined by computing the rate of temperature rise and the in-plane temperature distribution out of the measured values; a temperature control program adaptable for said temperature rise/fall characteristic is automatically selected out of a plurality of temperature control programs written in advance; the semiconductor substrate is controlled on the basis of the selected temperature control program. Also is provided a susceptor to reduce contamination of the semiconductor substrate with the metal impurities containing gas flow at the time of forming a thin film on the semiconductor substrate, and a gas phase thin film growth apparatus using such susceptor. The susceptor is formed with a gas flow deflector jutting downwardly from the peripheral portion of the reverse side of the susceptor to deflect the gas flow moving upon rotation along the reverse side of the susceptor from the center thereof to the peripheral portion thereof.
