PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an integrated assembly of a data disk and a disk drive. SOLUTION: The assembly includes the magnetic disk for data memory, which is supported rotatable. A rotor including a plurality of rotor poles is fitted and fixed to the disk for rotating the disk. A stator disposed with a plurality of stator poles around the rotor is used for rotating the disk by rotating the rotor in turn connecting to each rotor pole. The disk and the drive can be formed by lithography or electroplate coating, and in a typical practiced case a plurality of coaxial disks can be driven by one disk drive.

Abstract:
A magnetoresistive permalloy film is deposited upon a substrate and coated with a separating layer composed of titanium or a similar high resistivity, conductive material. A soft biasing layer of a material such as permalloy or a hard biasing material such as cobalt chromium is deposited upon the separating layer to complete a sandwich. All layers are coextensive in outline because their outlines are formed by a single etching step.

1391150 Magnetic heads INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP 12 Oct 1973 [30 Nov 1972] 47709/73 Heading G5R [Also in Division H3] Decrease of sensitivity due to oxidization of a magnetoresistive thin film magnetic bubble sensor or magnetic tape reading head is prevented by an overlay of Al 2 O 3 or Si 3 N 4 . The magnetoresistive material may be permalloy, or an alloy of Ni-Fe, Ni-Fe-Co, Ni-Co or Fe-Co, and have a thickness of between 200 and 1000. The overlay may be of twice this thickness. As applied to sensing magnetic bubbles 4, Fig. 1, in a magnetic plate 2, the sensor consists of a permalloy element 10 having an easy axis of magnetization in the direction of current flow from a source 12 through the element. The presence of a magnetic bubble changes the element resistance which is detected by the change of voltage across the source. A layer of a dielectric material S and a sputtered layer 18 of Al 2 O 3 or Si 3 N 4 extend over the magnetic plate and the magnetoresistive element. Similar layers are applied over the reading head 20, Fig. 2, of a moving magnetic tape 22, the magnetoresistive sensor 10 being similar to that shown in Fig. 1.
