TaN thin film is an attractive interlayer as well as a diffusion barrier layer in [FeN/TaN] n
multilayers for the application as potential write-head materials in high-density magnetic …

This article describes an approach for implementing a complete computer system (CPU,
RAM, I/O, and nonvolatile mass memory) on a single integrated-circuit substrate (a chip) …

With increases in media coercivity and file data rates, higher performance write heads and
write head pole materials are needed. In this paper we report on the development of the …

Barium ferrite is a leading candidate material for advanced magnetic recording media.
Tapes and disks made with it offer output amplitudes at recording densities of current …

A newly developed CoNiFe film is investigated from the viewpoint of its application to MR
write heads. Film composition is Co/sub 65/Ni/sub 12/Fe/sub 23/, prepared by electroplating …

A method for trimming a pole used in a read-write head comprises the step of depositing a
metallic layer on a layer of pole material, patterning the metallic layer so that it can serve as …

FeN materials exhibiting high moment, low coercivity and small magnetostriction have
previously been reported. Zr has been known to reduce the magnetostriction in other Fe …

Thin film inductive write heads incorporating 2‐μm‐thick single and multilayer FeAlN/SiO2
poles were fabricated. The poles were trimmed to 1 μm trackwidth using focused ion beam …

Magnetically soft FeTaN high saturation materials have been deposited on both sloping and
planar surfaces by RF reactive sputtering with an appropriate high substrate bias. A …

A review of the performance requirements for the writing components of high density tape
recording heads is given in the context of multichannel linear tape head arrays. A brief …
