    摘要: A data storage medium is introduced. The data storage medium from which information is reproduced by scanning a surface of the medium with a tip positioned in contact therewith comprises a recording layer within which data values are determined by the topographical state at the data item location. The material of said recording layer comprises a component that is generating an etchant. The etchant removes the naturally occurring surface oxide layer of the tip which keeps the tip sharp and works against tip wear.

    摘要: The present invention provides data storage devices, systems and methods. An example device includes: a storage medium for storing data in the form of marks; and at least one probe. The probe(s) and storage medium are operable to move relative to each other, with each probe comprising a tip facing the storage medium and having a force creating unit associated thereto. The force creating units are operable to create a force acting between the tip and said storage medium. The data storage device is operable to erase an indentation mark in the storage medium by way of controlling the force creating unit for creating at least one erase force pulse with a force rise time being less than or equal to the order of 1 microsecond.

    摘要: A data storage device is introduced. The data storage device comprises a write head. The write head comprises a heating element and a tip. The write head scans a data storage medium, wherein in an operation mode of the data storage device the tip is in contact with a surface of the data storage medium and heat is applied to the tip by means of the heating element. In order to achieve a good thermal contact between the tip and the data storage medium, the tip comprises a carbon element that is at least partially in contact with the surface in that operation mode. Such a write head can also be applied in the field of scanning probe lithography.

    摘要: Scheme for processing an input signal A(t) by N resonators (17), each having parameters characterizing it, to generate N individual output signals. Then each of the N individual output signals is weighted using a corresponding weight to generate N individual weighted output signals which are superposed to obtain M output signals C(t). One of the parameters or the weight depend on a time signal P(t).

    摘要: A data storage device comprises a storage medium for storing data in the form of marks and at least one probe for scanning the storage medium. The storage medium may be comprised in a substrate. The probe comprises a cantilever that comprises terminals serving as electrical contacts an being during operation of the probe mechanically fixed to a probe-holding structure, which may be a common frame of the data storage device. A probe further comprises a supporting structure, to which the terminals are mechanically directly coupled or coupled via hinges and which extends away from the terminals. A tip with a nanoscale apex is provided. A beam structure comprises a heating resistor and is attached at ends to the supporting structure. The beam structure is thinned at least in a direction parallel to an axis of the tip compared to an area of the supporting structure abutting the beam structure.
