Effect of Intermolecular Forces on the Static and Dynamic Performance of Air Bearing Sliders: Part I—Effect of Initial Excitations and Slider Form Factor on the Stability
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The mechanical spacing between the slider and the disk has to be reduced to less than 5 nm in order to achieve an areal density of 1Tbit∕in2. Certain physical phenomena, such as those that ...
Effect of Intermolecular Forces on the Static and Dynamic Performance of Air Bearing Sliders: Part II—Dependence of the Stability on Hamaker Constant, Suspension Preload and Pitch Angle
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Intermolecular and surface forces contribute significantly to the total forces acting on air bearing sliders for flying heights below 5 nm. Their contributions to the total force increase sharply ...
Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Dynamic Instability in the Head Disk Interface at Proximity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: As the flying height decreases to achieve greater areal density in hard disk drives, different proximity forces act on the air bearing slider, which results in fly height modulation and ...
