| 20090195920 | Main pole bridge structure - A method of reducing flux leakage between a main pole and a wrap around shield (WAS) is provided. A gap underneath a main pole is etched. Magnetic material is deposited in the gap. A layer of nonmagnetic material is deposited on the magnetic material, wherein the layer of nonmagnetic material reduces flux leakage between the main pole and the WAS. | 08-06-2009 |
| 20100163520 | STRUCTURE FORMATION USING METAL DEPOSITED ON A RIE-ABLE SEEDLAYER - Methods for fabricating a device component are provided. A substrate comprising a RIE stop layer, an oxide layer formed on the RIE stop layer, and a RIE-able layer formed on the oxide layer may be provided. A resist layer may be patterned on the RIE-able layer. A metal layer may be formed on portions of the RIE-able layer that are not covered by the resist layer. The resist layer may be removed and an RIE performed to remove exposed portions of the RIE-able layer and portions of the oxide layer beneath the exposed portions of the RIE-able layer. Thereafter, the metal layer may be removed, and the component may be formed in an opening in the oxide layer formed during the RIE. | 07-01-2010 |
| 20100252440 | Electroplating on ultra-thin seed layers - Methods and structures for the electroplating on ultra-thin seed layers are disclosed. A dual layer structure is utilized, consisting of a thicker, highly conductive layer surrounding device structures. Within the device die, an ultra-thin seed layer is employed, which is electrically coupled to the conduction layer. Using this technique, electroplating of critical device structures can be carefully controlled and made uniform across the full diameter of the wafer. The technique also allow for the deployment of ultra-thin seed layers of varying thickness and composition in different locations within the circuit device, or in different die on the wafer. | 10-07-2010 |
| 20110076393 | TRAILING PLATED STEP - Methods for fabrication of magnetic write heads, and more specifically to fabrication of magnetic poles and trailing magnetic pole steps. A write pole may first be patterned on a substrate. Then a side gap material may be patterned along sidewall portions of the write pole. Thereafter, a masking layer may be deposited and patterned to expose a portion of the write pole. A trailing magnetic pole step may be formed on the exposed portion of the write pole. | 03-31-2011 |

| 20090210493 | Communicating and Displaying Hyperlinks in a Computing Community - Various aspects are disclosed herein for communicating and displaying of hyperlinks in a computing community. Hyperlinks can be communicated by being embedded in messages, such that users of a closed computing community can send and receive such hyperlinks. These hyperlinks can link to hyperlinked content that can be stored on a central computing device responsible for administering the community. Moreover, any content that is associated with hyperlinks, whether that content is in the form of blogs, RSS feeds, and so on, can be made publicly available while any associated hyperlinks will be visible only to a subset of computing devices, namely, the community computing devices (but not to any general computing devices accessing the content). This task may be accomplished by using predetermined and/or proprietary schema properly understood only by the community computing devices. | 08-20-2009 |
| 20100125896 | TRUSTED NETWORK TRANSFER OF CONTENT USING OF NETWORK INPUT CODE - Systems and methods for use in connection with the trusted transmission and reception of content, such as encryption key information, from one computing device in a network to a second computing device are provided. In one embodiment, the invention provides a way to trust or validate the transfer of a public key using a very short code entered out of band of the network that is easy for end-users to remember, or write down. | 05-20-2010 |
