As electronics continue to shrink, heat management at the nanoscale has become increasingly important. The authors show that thermal conductance a metal-dielectric interface can be improved by half an order of magnitude inserting just 1 nm another metal. Multifunctional interfaces, as in plasmonic applications for heat-assisted magnetic recording, could exploit this benefit with little impact on other properties.
The method of Lamb and Wilson modified for use at low temperatures is used thermal conductivity measurements insulating materials in the range temperature +18 to -180° C. For finely granulated loosely packed fibrous materials, gradient was experimentally determined intermediate values along were obtained. coarsely or only mean observed. general shape conductivity-temperature curve relation density packing various discussed. compressible insulators, variation with densities has been found...

A write head design consisting of a split pole and gapped near-field transducer is presented. Through simulation, we found our can produce maximum effective cross-track recording field gradient 300 Oe/nm, difference 3.6 kOe between the center ±20 nm away in direction media near magnetic gap (MG). The tradeoff improved loss optical efficiency due to parasitic absorption by studied as function thickness low optical-index separator MG (OG). tapered bring close OG air bearing surface, while...
Heat assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) has been shown to provide substantial growth in hard disk areal densities compared the conventional perpendicular [1 , 2] . The continued of density capability (ADC) HAMR media relies on grain-size reduction its grains. As we continue reduce grain-size, however, maximum ADC is expected close around ~3 Tbpsi, limited by lowered stability grains [1] Dual layer media, with an exchange break separating two layers distinct Tc was proposed [3] as a design...
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been used to investigate geometrical scaling of heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR). Our investigation considers areal density capability (ADC) sensitivity with respect distinctive design features. We study HAMR performance by numerical key parameters including thermal profile spot size and reader dimension. DNNs are trained based on a full system model, which includes the writer, reader, channel detector, accelerate ADC optimization through scaling. In...
