A method for forming a protective bilayer on a magnetic read/write head or magnetic disk. The bilayer is formed as an adhesion enhancing underlayer and a protective diamond-like carbon (DLC) overlayer. The underlayer is formed of an aluminum or alloyed aluminum oxynitride, having the general formula AlOxNy or MezAlOxNy where Mez symbolizes Tiz, Siz or Crz and where x, y and z can be varied within the formation process. By adjusting the values of x and y the adhesion underlayer contributes to such qualities of the protective bilayer as stress compensation, chemical and mechanical stability and low electrical conductivity. Various methods of forming the underlayer are provided, including reactive ion sputtering, plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition, pulsed laser deposition and plasma immersion ion implantation. |

A hard drive disk substrate is formed of a multi-phase ceramic-based material having at least two phases with amorphous phases being present in an amount less than about 1 volume percent based on the volume of the ceramic-based material or at least one phase being free metal. A process for producing the ceramic-based disk substrate is produced by forming a flat disk of a porous ceramic and then infiltrating the porous ceramic with a metal whereby a multi-phase ceramic-based computer hard drive disk is produced. Additionally, a step of passivating the porous ceramic by elevating it to a temperature of about 1300.degree. to about 1800.degree. C. before the infiltrating step may be performed, such that the surfaces are passivated and the reaction kinetics can be controlled during the infiltrating step. A preferred composite material is made of a multi-phase boron carbide composite material including grains having peaks with an average roughness value, Ra, of between about 1 to about 200.ANG., the roughness value being formed in situ by causing a micro hardness gradient of between about 19 and about 3200 Kg/mm.sup.2 in the various phases of the multi-phase boron carbide composite material. |

A process and apparatus for polishing diamond or carbon nitride. A reaction and polishing take place at the interface between an oxygen superionic conductor (yittria-stabilized zirconia) and the diamond or carbon nitride. Oxygen anions are transported to the interface under the influence of a chemical gradient and react with the diamond or carbon nitride. Other mechanisms, such as an electric field and/or heat, that increase the partial pressure of oxygen on the opposing side of the interface of reaction can be used to accelerate the reaction time. The process may be undertaken at low temperatures and without mechanical motion, making it an attractive and useful polishing method. In addition, there is no residue of the polishing process which needs to be removed and polishing can be accomplished in ambient air. |

PURPOSE:To make the smoothening of the surfaces of a disk after working unnecessary by compression-molding ceramics or sintered metal into a substrate having a prescribed shape for a recording medium. CONSTITUTION:The cope 2 and the drag 3 of a metallic mold 1 have inner spiral grooves 7, 8, respectively. Steam or water is introduced from the inside inlets 9 of the grooves 7, 8, and it is discharged from the outside outlets 10. Alumina powder is kneaded with polyvinyl butyral and an adequate amount of an org. solvent, and the kneaded material is dried to obtain ceramic powder. This powder is filled into the cavity 4 in the mold 1, and it is compression- molded into a disk using the resin covering the alumina powder as a binder. The mold 1 is heated so as to allow the resin to act well as the binder during the pressing. Immediately before finishing the pressing, the mold 1 is cooled, and the strength is increased by sintering. A substrate having flat surfaces is obtd. |

PURPOSE:To prolong the life by using an org. solvent having power of partially dissolving the surface of a plastic substrate as one component of radiation-curing lacquer to maintain the adhesive strength of a layer of the lacquer having formed signal pits to the substrate. CONSTITUTION:An org. solvent having power of dissolving a plastic substrate is used as one component of radiation-curing lacquer. Mono-, di- or triester of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid is used as a radiation-curing compound. Electron beams, gamma-rays or ultraviolet rays are used as a radiation source. When ultraviolet rays are used, it is required to add a photopolymn. initiator such as benzoin isobutyl ether or benzoin isopropyl ether to the lacquer. The plastic substrate is made of polymethyl methacrylate, polycarbonate, a vinyl chloride-vinyl acetate copolymer or the like. |
