摘要:
A SiON overcoat for use on magnetic media for magnetic recording. The SiON overcoat is deposited by pulsed DC sputtering while applying a negative DC bias. The SiON overcoat is especially useful on perpendicular magnetic recording media because of its ability to deposit thinly and evenly on a rough, granular high coercivity recording media while maintaining excellent corrosion protection properties. A SiON overcoat can be applied less than 3 nm thick while still maintaining excellent mechanical and corrosion protection. The overcoat also has a very high density and water contact angle.

The present invention provides a novel method for reducing pad burnish damages on magnetic recording media. The method of the present invention reduces burnish damage and increases glide yield without compromising disk flyability, durability and general quality.
摘要:
A method of imprint lithography includes imprinting a first pattern with a first template on a first substrate of a lithographic template. A second pattern is imprinted with a second template on the substrate of the lithographic template. The first pattern and the second pattern at least partially overlap, thus forming a third pattern. The third pattern is lithographically formed on a second substrate with the lithographic template. In an embodiment, the first pattern is a concentric line pattern formed by thin film deposition. In an embodiment, the second pattern is a radial line pattern. In an embodiment the first pattern and the second pattern may have line frequency increased.
