20090190267 | RuTi AS A SEED LAYER IN PERPENDICULAR RECORDING MEDIA - A method for reducing thin film media layer thickness while maintaining adequate magnetic recording performance includes providing a substrate comprising a rigid support structure, depositing a soft underlayer on top of the substrate, depositing an interlayer on top of the soft underlayer and depositing a exchange break layer on top of the interlayer, wherein the exchange break layer comprises a flash layer of RuTi and a seed layer of Ru. The flash layer is deposited in place of a pure Ru layer, thereby reducing the amount of Ru deposited as well as decreasing the thickness of the overall intermediate layer. The magnetic performance of the media is maintained with the substitution of a RuTi flash layer for a pure Ru layer. | 07-30-2009 |

20080254324 | PERPENDICULAR MAGNETIC RECORDING MEDIUM WITH EXCHANGE-COUPLED MAGNETIC LAYERS AND IMPROVED COUPLING LAYER - A perpendicular magnetic recording medium has an “exchange-spring” type magnetic recording layer (RL) with an improved coupling layer (CL). The RL includes the first or lower ferromagnetic layer MAG | 10-16-2008 |
20090213494 | Perpendicular Magnetic recording system and medium with high-moment corrosion-resistant "soft" underlayer (SUL) - A perpendicular magnetic recording disk has a soft magnetic underlayer (SUL) that has high corrosion resistance as well as high moment. The material of the SUL is an alloy comprising Co, Fe, X, and Y; where X is Ta or Nb, Y is Zr or Hf, and the combined amount of X and Y present in the alloy is between about 10 and 20 atomic percent. The atomic ratio of Co to Fe in the alloy is between about 90:10 to 10:90, preferably between about 25:75 and 35:65. The SUL may be a single-layer SUL or a multilayer SUL formed of multiple soft magnetic layers separated by an interlayer film or films. | 08-27-2009 |
20100091402 | Adhesion layer for thin film magnetic recording medium - The invention uses an adhesion layer of an amorphous alloy of aluminum. A first aluminum titanium embodiment of the amorphous adhesion layer preferably contains approximately equal amounts of aluminum and titanium (+/−5 at. %). A second embodiment of the amorphous adhesion layer preferably contains approximately equal amounts of aluminum and titanium (+/−5 at. %) and up to 10 at. % Zr with 5 at. % Zr being preferred. A third embodiment is aluminum tantalum preferably including from 15 to 25 at. % tantalum with 20 at. % being preferred. The most preferred compositions are Al | 04-15-2010 |
20100110584 | Dual oxide recording sublayers in perpendicular recording media - A method is described for improving recording performance of a perpendicular media. The method includes using a dual oxide layer as a sublayer of a magnetic recording layer of the perpendicular media. The dual oxide sublayer improves recording performance, increases resistance to corrosion and allows for a thinner exchange break layer. The dual oxide layer generally includes oxides of tantalum and one of silicon or boron. | 05-06-2010 |

20100030577 | System and Business Method for Electrocardiogram Review - A system and method for review and analysis of electrocardiograms includes an application server computer system in communication with a plurality of client computers. In a preferred embodiment, the server computer provides notification and access of a patient cardiac study report to an electrocardiograph technician for review and comment. The technician assigns an academic fellow electrophysiologist to review the study report. The server computer provides notification and access of the study report and the technician's annotation to the assigned fellow for review and comment. The fellow then assigns an attending physician to review the study report. The server computer provides notification and access of the study report and the previous annotations to the attending physician for review and comment. The physician completes the study. The computer system automatically generates and forwards a referral letter to the requesting physician and attends to billing for the cardiac monitoring services. | 02-04-2010 |
